Re: Can't delete or move /home on 7.3 install

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I was most def root. /home isn't mounted as a separate filesystem.
It's not even tmpfs or btrfs. I was able to boot into single user mode
to remove it, but this isn't possible in an automated fashion. I may
just have to start building my own images.

Still curious to know why I can't rename or move it. Anyone else try
this on a stock 7.3 build?
