Hi All,

Sorry for the off-topic post, but I am having a weird Linux problem and I
was hoping for ideas.

On receiving my new Laptop one of the things that annoyed me was that they
had created quite a small /usr partition and a huge /home partition.  This
may make sense for a large multi-user system, but not for a Laptop!  I
decided to swap the contents of these two partitions, which I achieved
using a cp -R, deleting the old files, and swapping the mount points.

This seems to have worked ok, the only problem is that now when I shut
down my machine it can't unmount the /usr partition - meaning that it
needs to fsck it every time my machine boots - not ideal!

Can anyone suggest what the problem might be and/or how to fix it?

Regards,

Ian.
