I think your basic problem is that you have to have a bootable Unix partition
on the primary drive. I think the best you can do is to create a small
Unix partition on drive 0 for root, and then partition the second drive with
the entire drive for /usr. Then, the left over space from drive 0 could
be your /usr/spool....
