I believe LFS is now working in this direction????


Myth #8: The /usr merge will break my old installation which has /usr on a 
separate partition. 


Fact: This is perfectly well supported, and one of the reasons we are actually 
doing this is to make placing /usr of a separate partition more thorough. 
What changes is simply that you need to boot with an initrd that mounts /usr 
before jumping into the root file system. Most distributions rely on initrds 
anyway, so effectively little changes. 

What where you saying about initramfs not being needed ;^)
