Title: /home/root On Sd
Post by: HeavyWeaponDude on July 16, 2005, 05:09:59 am

Hello!

Just a quick question: how to move the /home/root directory (or any other home
directory) to the SD?

It is sufficent to move the folder on to the SD and then link it in the original location?
i.e.

Code: [Select]

cd /media/card
mkdir home
cd /home
mv root/ /media/card/home/
ln -s /media/card/home/root /home/root
I'm using Hentges with cardfs, and if after a reflash I tell it to put my /home/root on SD (as it asks on the first boot), Opie starts with a completely messed up resolution (which seems to me to be a 320x240 instead of vice-versa) and isn't usable. So I need an alternarte way to get the same result. Anybody has noticed this same bug?

That should work, as long as the card is formatted ext2 instead of fat.
