How about a prompt in the install script asking if /home is the chosen location for user folders? That would solve my problem I think.
-- 'Add to Existing Ubuntu' Install assumes /home folder is local. Fails on NFS share mounted via autofs. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/504317 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to Mythbuntu. Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Confirmed Bug description: Like many other users, my home folder is non-standard. Can the install script be modified to cater for this? Mine uses autofs to mount a share over NFS. The autofs prevents any manual creation of anything, even by root, in the /home folder. I can work around this. But I propose the assumption that all users go into a local /home folder is unsafe. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
