[plug] Add HDD question ..

[Bill Kenworthy]

One extra - dont delete the existing /var just yet - rename it to
something like /var-old to give you a path to easily backout if
something goes wrong, and delete it when it all looks ok.  Also, /var
being what it is, you may be better moving /usr or another choice.
