Moving Home 4676

Will Line 4 in my fstab allow me to have myhome on hdb1? Existinghome copied using cp -a tomnt-hdb1 ?? # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details dev-VolGroup00-LogVol00 ext3 defaults 1 1 # I think Line 4 below is the way to make the system find 'home' in its new location on the second drive # LABEL=-home mnt-storage-home ext2 defaults 1 1 LABEL=-boot boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none dev-pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none dev-shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 none proc proc defaults 0 0 none sys sysfs defaults 0 0 dev-VolGroup00-LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 dev-sdb1 mnt-camera auto rw,user,auto 0 0 dev-hdb1 mnt-storage ext2 rw,user,auto 0 0 TIA!!

Only if you did the extra steps of:

1) using fdisk to label the new parbreastion as 'home' 2) removed the 'home' label from th eold parbreastion 3) removed the last line frometc-fstab that mountsdev-hdb1 asmnt-storage as you can't mount the same parbreastion twice (well, not that way at least).

Personally, I'd just change the 2nd field in th elast line, but I'm old-school unix ;-)
