I have a single HDD at the moment. I want to keep this drive but add a new 320GB HDD and make that the new /home.
How should I go about this and are there any pitfalls to avoid? In my mind I will do this:
1. Connect new HDD and format with UFS.
2. Copy /home/* onto the new HDD.
3. Edit fstab and add the line:
How does this sound? Do I have to specify any flags to cp to retain permissions etc? Also, on tangential note, could I use ZFS for this new /home partition?
Cheers.
