I am installing openSUSE Leap 5.3. I would like to put /usr into it’s own partition. However, even when I select the expert partitionner during the installation, I see no option to separate /usr. When I create a partition, there is indeed a drop-down menu under “Mounting options” called “Mount point”, but /usr isn’t there, and there seem to be no option to manually specify the mount point. How can I separate /usr from the rest of the system?
Hi and welcome to the Forum
Since it’s part of the default btrfs then you need to type it in when you mount, don’t select the dropdown, just type in /usr and it will allow…
It is a bit confusing, you are not the first not seeing that that drop down list only shows suggestions, but that you can type anything (well, it should be a path of course) there.
