        I don't know if this is what you're trying to do, but I think that
its possible to mount one of the disks as /usr and the other as /usr/home.
Just make sure that the /usr disk is listed in /etc/fstab before the
/usr/home disk.  Alternatively, you could mount one at /usr and the other
at /home and then link /usr/home to /home.

        Is that what you were looking for?

Ummm cant he simply create a partition on each disk, and use ccd to make them appear as one then mount that under /usr ????

this would give him both disks, seen as one volumn mounted under /usr equaling lotsa space
