The previous 2 answers are all good, if you want to move all of /usr/local/
to the new drive.  If you only want to have NEW stuff put on the new drive,
most ports will pay attn to the PREFIX variable.

e.g.

make PREFIX=/usr2 install clean

or you can add PREFIX=/usr2 (or /usr2/local or whatever it's called) to
/etc/make.conf

Just thought I'd throw that one out there.

P.S. There are some ports that don't pay attn to PREFIX, but hopefully their
few and far between.
