Thread: Changing disk usage


i've installed ubuntu server 11.04. have 2 disks , unfortunally, during installation, second (lagre) disk dedicated "swap".
now, i'd use small disk "system" , large disk "data" (/usr/)

how can change configuration?

the basic gist of partition large disk how want ext4 small swap partition 4 gig (you gparted). modify fstab mount the new drive , partitions want them. note ubuntu uses uuids , need run sudo blkid command find uuids of new partitions.

why /usr rather /home? think i'd mount new disk/partition /newhome copy home directory /newhome check everything's fine i.e there right permissions etc delete old /home , mount disk/new partiton /home or use simlink.

need modify swap entry in fstab match new uuid of new swap partition
