[SLUG] Re: slug Digest, Vol 28, Issue 27

[David Liell]

Hi Sluggers,

Would someone fill me in on which partition my Ubuntu Hardy system is
on. Is it "/" or "/home?" A list of both directories follows:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home$ ls
bin dev initrd.img media root tmp vmlinuz.old
boot etc initrd.img.old mnt sbin usr
cdrom home lib opt srv var
david initrd lost+found proc sys vmlinuz


[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ ls
bin cdrom etc initrd lib media opt root srv tmp
var
boot dev home initrd.img lost+found mnt proc sbin sys usr
vmlinuz

I recently upgraded from Feisty and added a separate /home partition
during the installation.

Thanks
David

The 'mount' command will show you/us. E.g. on my machine:

% mount
/dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
/dev/sda3 on /home type ext3 (rw)
