OK, I see what you mean. Personally, I would have done it slightly |
| 9 |
differently: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
- create a partition with /home, /usr, /tmp, /var directories |
| 12 |
- mount this somewhere, say /stuff |
| 13 |
- mount -o bind /stuff/home /home |
| 14 |
- etc ... |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
But that's because I know myself and I know if I did it your way I'd |
| 17 |
confuse the dickens out of myself three days later when finding a usr/, |
| 18 |
var/, tmp/ inside /home. It seems that human memory is like those Flash |
| 19 |
NAND things - it deterioriates with age, hehehe :-) |
