-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I have a 2nd hardisk which is about 40gb in size,(blank) my 1st harddisk is about 60gb and currently has ubuntu 9.04 installed, this has a separate /home partition if I install 10.04 to the 2nd partition will it pick up my existing /home accounts and allow me to keep all my work / settings etc, (provided the related software is installed of course). Just wondered, as I don't have an external hard disk to back stuff up to yet. So doing this would be useful, I can then use my 1st hard disk for data and wipe 9.04 bit and use it for something else, (more data perhaps) and symlink it to a directory in /home/user/extra_space or something. I just want to know if it will pick up what i have. /dev/sda1 20161172 6886560 12250472 36% / tmpfs 513372 0 513372 0% /lib/init/rw varrun 513372 328 513044 1% /var/run varlock 513372 0 513372 0% /var/lock udev 513372 160 513212 1% /dev tmpfs 513372 364 513008 1% /dev/shm lrm 513372 2192 511180 1% /lib/modules/2.6.28-18-generic/volatile /dev/sda5 6593752 2833524 3425276 46% /media/music /dev/sda7 28447276 24986284 2015948 93% /home details as above, i dont think the 2nd hard disk is shown.
