Use bigger partitions, setup a restore CD with bigger partitions. We do it all
the time on Qube2/3. Although Steve's script for moving /usr/local is a good
patch, it's still a patch, and some finite amount of CPU cycles are wasted
with symlinks.
If you need some help setting up the OSRCD with bigger partitions, let me
know!
