Is that what eudev is going to do? I follow -dev and according to the eudev people they are going to support a separate /usr with no init thingy. So, they have a plan to do this. From what they were posting, they seem pretty sure they can do this. I'm just waiting on eudev to get stable. It was posted that the one in the tree still needs a couple fixes and then it will be ready for some testing. Heck, I'll gladly test it whenever they say it boots and KDE will work. Heck, just booting is a good start. lol Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
