Hello,

So I've been checking out LFS and really enjoying the speed improvement I
get when doing things such as extracting pkgsrc.tar.gz (an order of
magnitude speed increase).  I managed to make an install where /usr would be
mounted as an LFS filesystem but when I rebooted ... woops ... lfs_cleanerd
needs to run to mount /usr and its in /usr/libexec.  Is there any particular
reason I am missing that it is in /usr?  Even better, would this
functionality ever be moved into kernel space?  Moving it out of /usr would
allow one to make /usr LFS but I think as long as it is a separate program I
can't have an LFS root partition (please correct me if I am wrong about
this).  What are peoples thoughts about this?  I know it's not 100% stable
yet.  I'm currently testing it on a couple partitions where it doesn't
really matter if they get blown away (/usr/pkgsrc /usr/src) and its going
great so far (1.5.1).

Thanks,
-Scott
