Hi, For some reason (most likely my self), the home directory ended up in a partition where I do not want it to be. Can I move the home directory to the partition where I want it to be?
Can I log in as root and move the home directory? the home directory for the root user is on the partition called "/" and I would not be moving it in this operation. Currently I have: /home in the /dev/hde2 partition and I want it to go on /dev/hde3 partition instead. The /dev/hde3 partition is currently mounted on a directory /mnt/hd. Also /mnt/hd holds some files that I want to continue to use. I want /hde3 mounted on /home...... ok I think I got it. This is what I will do once I recieve some blessings from this list: I move the directories currently under /home to /mnt/hd, then I change one line in /etc/fstab to make /dev/hde3 mount on /home instead of /mnt/hd. I think this will preserve the contents of the user home directories and also those files that are now in the /mnt/hd directory. Any feedback will be appreciated. Seedkum
