Thanks all,

I'm beginning to get a much clearer picture now. Just one more question - if
you add another drive and want to move ,say the /usr/local onto the new
drive, how do you persuade linux not to continue looking for it on the
original drive? Is it sufficient to simply copy any contents across to the
new drive and delete the old /usr/local in some way - would you use
something like disk druid for that?
