Unmount usr shouldn't require a re-install. A simple reboot should bring it back to its old state, unless you took it out of /etc/fstab as well...

Looks like the cat is out of the bag.

OK, I admit it!! I took it out of /etc/fstab first!! please stop reminding me... I just want to put this in my past...

Or you can just mount it back up manually. Yeah, it will probably bring your system down, but it shouldn't really be a big deal...

Well, I didn't just unmount it and edit /etc/fstab. I also foolishly moved a bunch of files around, apparently losing some important ones.

Believe me. The system was toast. (And it was a good excuse to wipe my 1GB HD I had used for Windoze and install FreeBSD on IT).
