Zaurus Home Directory

Zaurus Home Directory

The zaurus user's home directory is located on the /home partition which is only 4MB in size. This partition is also used to store kernel modules, /etc and logs. In addition, some applications also store their configuration and data into the zaurus home directory. This partition quite quickly fills up. It it advised not to store large files there, in fact try avoiding saving anything there to preserve the precious space available there.

If you do run out of space, you can move some files and directories to /hdd2 or /hdd3 and symlink the files/directories. To simplify this, I have created a script zhomefix which will move all files and directories in /home/zaurus starting with . to /hdd2/zaurushome and symlink them back. If you are low on space on /hdd2 as well, you can modify zhomefix to move files to /hdd3/zaurushome instead.
