[moved files from /dev/hda1 to /dev/hdb1]I rebooted the box and when I logged in, /hdb1 did not exist. To summarize, F'ing with the box for an inordinate amount of time revealed that /dev/hdb1 was not being auto-mounted on bootup, only/dev/hda1. I must manually "mount /dev/hdb1" to access the /home directory.My question is two-fold: 1) How do I cause /dev/hdb1 to automount on bootup?
I suggest you post your /etc/fstab file.
2) Is there a shorter solution to copying
/home/* from /hda1 to /hdb1? If so,
what is it?
mount /dev/hdb1 /tempmnt mkdir /tempmnt/home cp -a /home/* /tempmnt/home umount /tempmnt rm -rf /home/* mount /dev/hdb1 /home (fix /etc/fstab to do this automatically) -- Kent
