Hi Emma,
You should be able to just copy the subject folders in question to a new
location. When you want to work with them just set your SUBJECTS_DIR
variable to whatever that new path is. Could you explain why you think
you will have to recreate surface reconstructions? That should not be
the case. You are simply going to copy the cases to a new location,
correct?

Thanks Christopher for your response. I have read the tutorials/wiki
page. My subject directory is set up somewhat similarly (See below).
The problem is I would like to create and move the "PP*" patients to
an entirely new and different FS 'subjects' directory while keeping
the "MM*" patients in the current FS 'subjects' directory...Anybody
have any ideas on how I can implement this? Thanks in advance!

I think it's a bit unclear what you're asking for. Have you
followed the tutorials on the wiki? Can you post your directory
structure?
What I do on my system is keep studies separate from one another.
Each study directory has its own FS directory, and I keep the raw
images separate. So something like the following:
.
|-- Study A
|-- DTI
|-- MPRAGE
|-- raw
|-- subj01
|-- subj01_mprage.nii.gz
|-- subj01_DICOMS
|-- subj02
|-- Freesurfer
|-- subj01
|-- subj02
|-- FMRI
...and so on

*Subject:* Re: [Freesurfer] creating a new subject directory using
imported data from existing subject directory
Hi,
I'm re-posting my query in case it got buried on the listserve:
Dear Freesurfers,
I created a single subject directory and then imported sdata from
two separate studies, in the end I realized I should have created
two subject directories and would like to now rectify the
situation. My question is, 1) how do I create a second subject
directory in a different location? and 2) how do I transfer my
existing subjects' data from my current subject directory to this
new subject directory without having to redo any of my work
(surface reconstruction). Is this even possible at this point? Or
is it that I should only have one FS directory after all and
perhaps I should just move the location of this directory so it is
more accessible for both of my studies? If this is the case, could
you advise me on how to go about doing this?
BTW I'm using bash shell.
I hope my questions are clear. Thanks!!!
