Thread: natty install


i happily using maverick32 bit / , /home seperate. went natty clean install after erasing 10.10. 1 problem. user created in /home created within , not on seperate partition had been using previously. using natty , running successfully.

there way can shift home folder other partition (which un named) ? previous user folder , documents intact there ! if can this, need not go re-install. there way move home folder partition , make grub boot /home mounted ?

ll happy if can rather go through process of complete reinstall !

in advance

you forgot mark mountpoint of old /home partition /home in new installation dialog.

not totally sure may need couple of lines added /etc/fstab this
code:
# /home on /dev/sda2 during installation uuid=e2554df2-7e16-4864-97c9-834d8bebecda /home           ext4    defaults        0       2
just make sure uuid , format type (ext4) correct sudo blkid, edit line above fit yours, , add /etc/fstab using
code:
gksu gedit /etc/fstab
finally use command
code:
sudo mount -a
and new home mount, , @ every boot.
