inti_i added a line in fstab for my home partition,i didnt have one before , but this caused it tonot let me login17:25
inti_i added /dev/sda1 /home ext4 nodev,nosuid 0 217:25
inti_sda1 is empty17:26
inti_did i have to do something else?17:26
charlie-tcaIs /home a separate partition?17:26
inti_not now,thats what im trying to do17:27
charlie-tcaIf it is not a separate partition, then you can't add it to /etc/fstab yet17:27
inti_sda1 is a separate partition17:27
charlie-tcait does not matter if /home has not been created on it17:28
charlie-tca!fstab17:28
ubottuThe /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions17:28
inti_i followed http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome somewhat17:29
charlie-tcayeah, somewhat doesn't really work, does it?17:30
inti_somewhat because i already had spare partition empty and because i didnt backup17:31
inti_but in the guide it says to move stuff to the new partition but i dont recognize which command i=does this17:32
inti_i= (mistake)17:32
charlie-tcawell, fstab knows the partition is not named /home yet, and will not allow it to be used17:33
inti_i see17:33
Sysicopy stuff there with livecd and chown it to you17:34
inti_how do i name it ?17:34
charlie-tcayou use a livecd with gparted to mark it as a /home partition17:35
inti_i copy the home directory? or only the contents?17:35
Sysicharlie-tca: that's not needed?17:35
Sysiit just need to be mounted to right place and you have to own your home folder to log in17:36
charlie-tcaooops.17:36
charlie-tcaI am wrong, inti_17:36
charlie-tcalisten to Sysi17:36
Sysior you can copy with: cp -a17:37
Sysiit keeps chown17:37
* charlie-tca seems to have his head on backwards today17:38
inti_do i need livecd or can i just mount it now and copy stuff17:38
inti_i think im just gonna set this partition to automount for extra space17:46
Sysiit's kinda better to have diferent partition for *just* data and17:48
inti_oh well17:52
inti_thnx18:06
inti_the fsck option in fstab ... when is 2.. what it means?18:18
inti_0 not check, 1 check18:19
charlie-tcaI think 1 is check before mounting and 2 is check anytime, but I am not positive18:22
charlie-tcainti_: The 1 and 2 are the order of the checks. 1 means check this drive first, and is used for /18:24
charlie-tca2 means to check it after the 1  is finished18:24
charlie-tcamore information about those is in man fstab18:28
