    Like you I did mount /usr separately for over a decade, with the
idea that my OS would be recoverable if /usr was corrupted. Untill I
realized it simply wouldn't. I tend to prefer, now to reserve a
partition for another Linux OS. It could be a clone, of the main one,
but I prefer experimenting with fancy things, even custom. Disks are so
big nowadays that there is a lot of room for it.

    In my last install, I still had /tmp and /var on separate
partitions, but I'm questionning the validity of such a setup.
