How to migrate /usr to another drive – Ubuntu
by rupert on May.24, 2009, under Linux
Not hard, Prepare drive, Mount, Copy /usr contents.
Edit fstab, no problemo, except one thing, do NOT reboot until you have chown -R root:root the new /usr, also chmod 4755 /new-usr/bin/sudo otherwise you will lose sudo ability.
If you have a root account then its ok, otherwise you will need to boot a live disc and carry out these functions.
