With the headaches you're going through, I reckon I'll be going back to how I used to do installs years ago. One whole drive for /home, one whole drive for everything else. Though probably a SSD for the system (for speed), and magnetic disc for home (for less nasty surprises). When a new release is going to be installed, I'll unplug the home drive, and do the install without it. After, I'll attach it and mount it over the system root home folder. Doing it that way took all the worry out of doing installs. My other approach, was: unplug the drive, install a blank drive, install the OS. Plug in the old drive, copy the data over to the new drive, remove the old drive and store it. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.42.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Sep 7 14:49:57 UTC 2021 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
