Why does Linux do anything it does? Because a bunch of shortsighted nerds think it's a good idea. For example, try to install software on another disk.

    As someone said you solution is to symlink or setup LVM volume groups for different mount points. Essentially, it's all or nothing. You can't just put a single program on a different disk without then taking all those files and manually symlinking them to the right place. It's honestly one of the biggest Linux oversights.
