You can start with mounting the new disk over the /usr mount point (need to go to single user mode without network) and then you only see the new disk and hide the old /usr contents. If you can bring up the services with that you can go back, unmount, rename /usr and modify /etc/fstab and boot again. Finally dispose of the renamed /usr directory. This is where planning ahead pays off. You can have YaST do the split itself during installation when you give it both disks and tell it to use the 2nd disk for /usr. Rob
