In fact I'm having a lot of trouble. I just tried to move /var to /usr/var and create a link to /var. Instead of moving /var to /usr/var, it copied all of /var except /var/run/log. So, I didn't create the link or anything. /var is still intact where it was. But now when I try to use vi, it says "too many levels of symbolic links" and it won't let me edit files.
