- Find the uuid of the Partition
$ sudo blkid
take note (copy&paste into a text-file) the uuid of the partition that you have set-up ready to be the new /home partition.
- Setup fstab
Duplicate your fstab file: $ sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.$(date +%Y-%m-%d) Compare the two files to confirm the backup matches the original:
$ cmp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
Open the original fstab in a text editor:
$ sudo vim /etc/fstab
And add these lines into it
(identifier) (location, eg sda5) (format, eg ext3 or ext4) (some settings) UUID=???????? /home ext3 nodev,nosuid 0 2and replace the "????????" with the UUID number of the intended /home partition.
