Moving /home to a separate partition...

[Jay Ridgley]

Good afternoon,

I successfully moved my /home directory to a separate partition, using 
the instructions found:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving

The only things I would suggest be added are:

1. Disconnect the target system from your network.
2. Shutdown ALL applications other than a terminal task on the target 
system.

This will make sure nothing changes between the start and end of the 
rsync copy of the current /home directory to the target /media/home 
partition in step 4.

Other that that I had no problems, just followed the instructions.

Cheers,
Jay
