If any of you are using OpenSolaris, here is a great blog post about  
converting to a ZFS root (/):

  http://blogs.sun.com/timf/date/20070329

If you're unfamiliar with ZFS but want to learn more, check here:

http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/whatis/

Now take what you've read there and imagine you can boot off of it.   
No more wasted space or being locked in to a bad decision when you  
(or your predecessor) initially setup the box.

Good stuff!
