I just installed a second hard drive. For now I'm mounting it as /mnt/drive2. Everything is working fine. I'd rather mount it as /usr or /home, but I'm worried about what will happen to my existing data in those paths if suddenly mount the new drive at either of those points. Thanks for any advice. Here's my current config: /etc/fstab: # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/hda1 /windows vfat users 0 0 /dev/hdd2 /mnt/drive2 ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hdd1 /mnt/D vfat umask=000,rw 0 0 First hard drive Disk geometry for /dev/hda: 0.000-12419.056 megabytes Disk label type: msdos Minor Start End Type Filesystem Flags 1 0.031 5812.580 primary fat32 boot 2 5812.581 5914.555 primary ext3 3 5914.556 12417.429 primary lvm Second hard drive Disk geometry for /dev/hdd: 0.000-78167.250 megabytes Disk label type: msdos Minor Start End Type Filesystem Flags 1 0.031 39997.771 primary fat32 2 39997.771 78159.990 primary ext2 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
