First of all, I know there's a performance hit when you set something
like this up, but I'm testing on a 2, +/- 1.2GB IDE drives system right
now as follows:

wd0 / 128MB
wd0 /swap 512MB
wd0 /var 557MB
wd1 /usr 1033MB

I would really prefer to add the space taken up by /var to /usr and
provide a virtual pointer, but don't know how to implement software RAID
or if I even can with FreeBSD.

Should I simply not allocate anything to /usr or /var (perhaps with a
/tmp to place the software RAID binaries in) then once it's in the
kernel run stand/sysinstall and blow away /tmp and recreate as /usr?

I'm not trying to make this too terribly complicated; I guess maybe I'm
just a touch too much the perfectionist?  :->

Thanks!

RAB
