I want to move /home directory to a new partition (save drive). I have 1-SSD drive: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% /dev/sda4 916G 405G 464G 47% /
Home directory is on it taking about 360GB I was planning doing it in stages. Stage-1 Using Gparted to resize "/" portion shirk it to about 450GB create new ext4 partition for /home /dev/sda5 Boot-strap the PC with live-gentoo mv /home /home.org mkdir /home mount ext4 /dev/sda5 /home/ cp -rp /home.org/* /home/ edit fstab: /dev/sda5 /home ext4 default 0 0 reboot and test home Am I missing something? If everything works, remove /home.org Stage-2: With Gparted resize both root and home portion, giving root about 200GB and rest to /home (dev/sda5)
