Re: initializing linux partitions after installation
I'm not sure if this would work, edit your /etc/fstab and add your
partitions there:
LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/tmp /tmp ext3 defaults 1 1
If you're wondering where is your /home right now my guess is that
you're using your root partition. Do a df and you'll see all mounted
partitions so you're just using up the root instead.
