Splitting flie system over 2 disks
Hi all
Just got a 4Gb sdhc card for my eee pc as im running out of disk space, I was thinking it would be a good idea to mount my home directory (/root/) on the card, so all my work is portable if needs be. I have googled this but it seems pretty hard to get it to understand what i want. I went out on a limb and edited /etc/mtab to read:
But im not sure that did anything...Code:/dev/sda1 /root/ vfat rw,noatime,quiet,umask=0,check=s,shortname=mixed 0 0
Any help please? Im sure its pretty simple.
would have to mount your root directory to /dev/sda at boot.
mkdir /dev/sda/root
mount --bind /dev/ssd/root /dev/sda/root
you will need a start script in init.d and a sym link in rc.d somewhere to get it started at boot.
I'm not 100% sure of the commands but that should get you started in the right direction. Once again this is the major problem with installing bt3 to the eeepc hard drive.
you should copy /usr to your memory stick and then edit your fstab to mount it as /usr then delete /usr only after your sure you completly copied everything and edited your fstab correctly that should free up alot of space
