I think I'm starting to get ccd, but I just wanted to run this by you all before I try it. I don't want to hurt anything. I have two Maxtor IDE drives: a 3.2G Diamondmax (UltraDMA), and a 2.1G CrystalMax (Not UDMA). My controllers don't support UDMA anyway. I just want to make sure I can do the following. Suppose I partition the disks like this. 3.2G 2.1G ---- ---- 64M swap 64M swap 2.1G-64M /usr1 2.1G-64M /usr2 64M / remainder /usr The idea, of course, is to get two file systems, /usr1 and /usr2 that are the same size. Then I'll do an ordinary install onto / and /usr, ccd /usr1 and /usr2. Finally, I'll move the /usr stuff to the ccd and mount it on /usr resulting, I hope, in better performance from my disks, and I'll use the former /usr partition just for sources and ports distfiles. Does this make sense? I'd appreciate any pointers--good options to ccdconfig for the intended use, for example. Thanks.
