I guess I'm missing something here. If you split out all the

subsidiary filesystems. LVM snapshots are pretty cool, but is it worth
the pain when (not if) it breaks?
"/" will typically include "/etc" and then many subdirectories below it.

/ is also intended to contain other stuff, the binaries you need to get
things working well enough to find everything else, the libraries they
require, the kernel modules.
