Subject: [gentoo-user] Separate /usr partition
Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2022 16:50:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5874509.lOV4Wx5bFT@wstn> (raw)

Hello list,

I'm thinking of separating /usr onto its own partition so that I can have it 
mounted read-only except while updating it. I'd prefer not to have to make an 
init thingy, not having needed one up to now. Besides, some machines have 
things like early-ucode or amd-uc.

I've found a few guides on the Web, but I'm still confused. Is there a simple 
guide to doing this? I know of at least one subscriber here who's done it.  :)

-- 
Regards,
Peter.
