You could have added it as /home during the F9 installation already. Now you need to edit /etc/fstab, specify that /dev/sda6 is to be mounted on /home, then mount it manually (or reboot). That is best done in run-level 1 (or when nothing uses /home). Don't forget to save/move/delete any files in /home on /dev/sda9, because once /dev/sda6 is mounted on /home, you could no longer access them without unmounting /home first. :) -- Fedora release 9.90 (Rawhide) - Linux 2.6.26-0.17.rc3.fc10.i686 loadavg: 1.57 1.70 1.67 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
