You may also want to reconsider the boot partition strategy. An alternative is a / 512M b swap ? c disk d /usr rest of disk This is real df and disklabel output from a NetSBD 4 sparc machine (with a single 4G disk). It seem highly likely that / (even with /var, basically not /usr) will fit fine in a partition which is not so big as to hurt it being missing from /usr and well under 1G. I find this easier than messing with a boot partition.
