Finally decided to upgrade to LTSP5, but before I do, I need to sort out an old problem which I have been putting off.
For reasons far too complicated to go into (AKA I screwed up) I have ended up without a separate /opt partition. In itself not a huge problem, but unfortunately this has resulted in the / partition being closer to capacity than I would like. Fortunately I have a massive and unused /archive partition (on /dev/cciss/c0d0p12 filesystem) which I am not using. I therefore want to unmount /dev/cciss/c0d0p12, change the mount position to /opt and remount. Given that /opt is only used when clients first boot, and /archive is currently unused, this would seem quite straightforward and safe. My plan is simply to do: # mv /opt /home/opt # umount /dev/cciss/c0d0p12 Edit /dev/cciss/c0d0p12 mount point in fstab to /opt # mount /dev/cciss/c0d0p12 # mv /home/opt to /opt Test! I have a HP Proliant DL380 G5 with hardware RAID1+0. The system is backed up nightly to DAT. Can anyone advise on whether my proposed solution is sensible, or whether I should do anything different - particularly given the hardware RAID? Thanks. -- Chris Roberts LTSP Version : 4.2 Distribution : Debian Etch Windows Manager : KDE 3.5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
