This hard drive is nearly full (75%). I have another hard drive with /home on it. This drive is nearly empty. I want it so that /usr/sys (and the directories below it) will use the 2nd hard drive as well as the first, so that I will not get errors when grabbing the sources and building world, for example. Can someone tell me how to do this, or if it is a FAQ, point me to the relevant URL. The system concerned is running 4.0-STABLE. The first hard drive is master on primary IDE the second one master on secondary IDE I think it is accomplished via hard links but am very unsure, and would like comments from relative experts on how I should go about doing this, it is important that I get it right first time.
