Hi,
A work colleague has added a new hard disc to his Xubuntu system and formatted
it so that it appears as a mount point in the file browser. However, what he
really wants to do is to use that disc to contain his home directory, so that
the / directory has a disc to itself.
He doesn't have much in his current /home directory (he's a very new user), so
one way to do this is a clean install and mount the new disc as /home during
installation. However, I'm sure that there's a 'proper' way to do it; a new
entry in fstab and some judicious copying perhaps?
Can someone give me a procedure or series of steps to do this without breaking
his existing installation?
