Tom, That depends on your Windoze file system. How is it formatted? FAT32 or NTFS? I personally have a 120Gb drive with 20Gb for Linux and 20Gb for Windoze and 80 for "data" which I use as a communal drive between the two OSs. Even though I RARELY get into Windoze, it is nice. so I can move about and reinstall freely. </Jared> On Sat, 2003-04-26 at 11:33, Tom Nielsen wrote:
Well, I only have /boot, swap and / No /home. I guess I'm kind of screwed huh?
Is there a way to mount my windows drive and copy /home to there so that I can copy it back? Would that work? There's really no way for me to back it up at this point, I can't get to my cd record program.
Thanks, Tom

While that is an option, I prefer not to lose my /home directory.
If /home is on a separate partition (and it should be IMHO) that won't be an issue. If you don't have /home on a separate partition, you might want to take this opportunity (if you can) to back up your /home and re-do the partitioning so that you can do clean installs in the future.
