I did. Around x1.5 of my Ram to be sure. More is useless.

It's a quite big SSD card (around 450 Go) if we consider 32 GB is enough for
most system.
Thank you
I often add or remove hard disks or SSDs. Below is what I always do (maybe
insecure, but very easy). For your reference:
1. Connect to hard disk or SSD to your system. Create partition(s) and format
them. Get the UUID.
2. Create mount points (sub-directories) under home directory
I have done something else...
Anyway this was a 3 day installation, I've saved before all the home
directory and all selections in Synaptic. So, no real problems for recovering
it all.
Frist, I tried to modify the /etc/fstab with a live usb bu doing
sudo mount /dev/system_partition /mnt
I've done this mkdir command because the english Ubuntu told it, but I wanted
to see what was going on in /media/user .
Before my unfortunate reboot, I saw that when I was booting my extra hard
drive after this mkdir command, I had both My_hard_drive as a folder and
My_hard_drive1 as a
Isn't it supposed to mount all filesystems listed in the filesystem table
file /etc/fstab ?
So yes, I didn't have any mount of the extra hard drive at all when it was
unmounted.
But I suppose it was only when I reboot Trisquel when my extra line in fstab
is considered.
It is a real mess
The exact number of space(s) is unimportant.
But since you already added the new disk to /etc/fstab, why should you invoke
# mount -a command?
Hi everyone,
I wanted to intall an extra hard drive for the system.
So after fully formated my hard drive in ext4, I've changed the /etc/fstab
for this HD to automatically be mounted when I boot.
I carefully took the UUID of my HD by doing a sudo blkid before.
I also saved a fstab.bak
