In short, pick a big directory, move it to another partition and
symlink to it is generally the most pain-free way to do it, but is
probably not the ideologically purest way of doing it :)
It's safest to boot into single-user when you do it, though, to make
sure you'll not be annoying anything by pulling /usr out from
underneath it.
