sorta newbie question, I think, and not sure where to post it...so I put
it here.

system:  5.0-current, lots of hard disk space.

I am filling up / with stuff...so much so that the system is crashing
and rebooting(!) when I print.  Problem seems to be that /usr directory
is located on the / filesystem when I have a /usr filesystem that has
gobs of space but not much on it.

I want to move the /usr directory contents over and link the /usr
directory on the / filesystem to the /usr filesystem but not exactly
sure how to do it (after reading the docs) without messing things up. 
Not sure if I need to soft link or hard link...etc.  

thanks, karl
