Just two problems: first, I took others' advice again to switch from Reiser to ext3fs, but my home directory is too big to get onto cd's or dvd's, so I now have a system based on ext3fs except for the /home directory, which is still Reiser. I'm digging through the home directories so I can divide it onto several dvds, but it's going to take a while.
How big *is* your /home directory?! :-)
32+G. I have thousands of technical documents from 35+ years of engineering work, hundreds more from hobbies I've had over the years, and dozens more from various projects I've done on contract since I got laid off from my last few jobs.
And how big is your / partition where Suse is intstalled? Surely it must be big enough and with enough space left for you to copy your current /home directory to / then format your current /home partition in ext3 and then it copy back from / . No, this can't be done?
/ is 20G, of which suse 10.2 takes up 5.7G, and I haven't finished installing all the applications I need and want. -- John Perry Embedded Electronics -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
