Don't forget, you might also loose the booter. :-)

People have had problems with custom kernels when they copy them to /.
If the file is copied from somewhere else to /, folks have problems
booting. The same file if then copied from / to / (say /netbsd.new to
/netbsd), it works.

Weird, eh?

I leaft my root partition a level 1, and just made /usr and the others
more modern ones.

Take care,
