Re: moving /usr to /dev/mmcblk0p2
I don't think this is a good idea. There are many things in /usr which are needed at start up. And there is a good chance that your SD card won't be mounted when the init.d scripts run.
You should...

Re: OS2008: a step back from OS2007
One should not switch to OS2008 just for the purpose of switching. There must be a compelling reason to switch (read: some piece of software which you really need).
