Here is the output from fdisk -l: Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 1216 9767488+ 83 Linux /dev/sda2 1217 1338 979965 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda3 1339 30401 233448547+ fd Linux RAID autodetect Disk /dev/sdb: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 1 1216 9767488+ 83 Linux /dev/sdb2 1217 1338 979965 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sdb3 1339 30401 233448547+ fd Linux RAID autodetect Disk /dev/md0: 239.0 GB, 239051210752 bytes 2 heads, 4 sectors/track, 58362112 cylinders Units = cylinders of 8 * 512 = 4096 bytes Disk /dev/md0 doesn't contain a valid partition table I can see that /dev/sda3 is the /home partition and that it is running as raid. How do I mount this as /home please and then get it to stay mounted as /home when I boot up? I'll then need to work out how to add shares!
