Thread: question about upgrade with / on one drive and one for /home
hi ubuntu community:
installed ubuntu on new machine , used custom install to:
- put operating system (/) on 1 drive, and
- to put /home directory on different drive.
hard drive i've installed os on old mechanical hard drive, , i'll want replace ssd in few months.
when want replace mechanical drive ssd, wondered how it.
do custom install again, and
- define 2 partitions on ssd (one / , 1 swap) - , check format box, and
- define other hard drive have /home on it, but not check format box?
thanks!

i yes.
set second drive have mount point of /home , not mark format.
create 2 partitions on ssd , set mount point of / , /swap. ssd drive need formatting anyway. when os installs know /home located.
once converted /home folder /home partition os failed load because not find /home folder or configuration files in it. fresh install of os partition mounted / allowed pick /home partition = working os.
regards.
