Re: Another Hard Disk

[Alexey Fadyushin <fab s-tunnel com>]

If you want to use both the old and new disks for the home partition (so 
 the /home size will be sum of the old and new disk sizes) you could 
put home directories of one part of your users on the one disk (mounting 
it as, for example, as /home1) and of the other part of users to another 
disk (/home2). Then put the correct links from /home to users' 
subdirectoties on /home1 and /home2. The better way is to use LVM to 
combine old /home partition and partition on the new disk into new 
logical disk and put /home on that logical disk (which will have the 
size equal to the sum of sizes of its componenets (old /home and new disk)).
