i used to have almost the same setup, but i've found there's a lot of
thrashing when you have multiple reiserfs partitions on the same drive. so,
now i just have / and /boot (all three of my drives have /boot partitions,
for redundancy). my / is reiserfs on software raid 0. i have three 9gig
10krpm drives, with a chunk size of 16.
anyway, i suggest trying a single root partition, instead of seperating out
/usr, /var, etc. for one thing, you don't have to worry about one partition
running out of space when the others have plenty.
