I've just had the root directory on my FAT32 formatted SD card p1 get
hosed (Stale NFS file handle) so I ask the very simple question:
what is the best/most reliable way of moving my home directory from
NAND to the SDCard? I have the whole of p1 available for my home
directory so I could mount it as /home/root, I could exit the /etc/
passwd file or I could symlink it.
Ideally I'd love to have things like this in a How to page on the
QTMoko wiki. Would anyone complain if I started such a page?
TIA

The best way is to mount your partition on the home because a lot of sw
for the moko aren't coded well and uses always the /home/root as homedir
also if you have changed it.
Moreover mounting the partition gives you tha ability that if your sd
card is gone you can always use your phone with the home in the flash
empty dir used as mountpoint.
If you want more flexibility mount it with LABEL instead the device
name so that if the device name change your home isn't affcted.
