Moving system and application directories around after installation usually means someone has got their sums wrong (Netware had the nifty capability of extending logical volumes across multiple partitions, which meant that all you did was plug in another chunk of disk space when you running a bit low on storage in another area so one rarely needed to do this kind of directory juggling but this not an option on Windows or Linux based systems).
Of course it is an option on Linux.
Just use LVM to create PVs (Physical Volumes) and then LVs (Logical
Volumes) you can format and use as partitions for /, /usr, /var/log, etc...
You can even combine the software RAID1 and LVM.
