Thanks for the replies!
I used systemd approach to mount my other media disk. For my home disk I sticked to the fstab approach (for now) because it was easier to change in this kinda risky endeavor…
@Aragorn , regarding you tutorial:
Now, we’ll move over the contents of your current
/hometo the new partition…mv /home/* /mnt/ && sync
I think it is really bad advice to use mv here, if something goes wrong during move you end up with a broken home. Whereas with copy (or rsync), you can always start over and delete the old folder after successful copy.
And for some reason the moving of data took way longer (like 3 or 4 times) under the rescue target then it took me in my DE. During that time I was sweating “my ass off”, because I didn’t know and couldn’t check what was going on…
So if you could change that to cp, I think it would be really perfect tutorial!
