 multiple hard drives in /home
Hey guys.
I currently have 2x9Gb SCSI drives. SCSI 0 is the OS drive (running Ubuntu server 6.10 - soon to be updated to latest release) SCSI 1 is mapped to /home. My housemate wants to put his 4 NTFS hard drives inside. What I want to know though was is it possible to mount these all to /home?
They currently have data on (work, video, music etc.) and I obviously don't want to do something wrong and wipe the data (as apparently his brother did when trying to get NTFS working on linux - unsure of what package was used).
thanks,
/xni

Hi,
You can mount them in separate subdirectories, like /home/video, /home/work, /home/disk1, etc.
Union mount is not supported by the Linux kernel yet where everything would be mounted with unified content at /home.
Regards, Szaka

This might be a bit late but you can use unionfs to make a union of mounted folders.
