I'm trying to set up a system as a dual boot, with two different Linuxes. I want to be able to mount a 'personal partition' on either system, so it will appear in both fstabs mounted at /home/user. The reason is that I want to maintain the use of things like mail, bookmarks and user settings on either boot. The problem is things like Firefox which keep their data files in .directories. Some of the versions are different between the two systems too.
Ideally I'd keep all my personal files in /home/user/myfiles, and cross mount that, but the damn .files will be at the /home/user level - and some things, like the Mozillas, insist on their own heirarchy. Has anyone done this before successfully, and how did they manage these issues?
