    Are you meaning on a different partition or a completely different hard drive?

      well my desktop has the main ssd where i installed it too but that is pretty small while the second drive is something like 2tb so that’s where i would have put it. its honestly not bad now i had a brief panic where it ran out but ive symlinked a lot in /home over to the new place its just wish i understood the advanced partitioning when i first set it up that’s all.

        Not too difficult to fix this in post.

        1. Turn off, boot from a USB
        2. Copy all home to drive
        3. Delete home from old drive
        4. Add fstab entry
        5. ???
        6. Lose all data (but usually profit)

          You say it’s not too difficult, but, I guarantee you, if I tried to do this, I’d lose not only my /home, but also my game drive. I’m that kind of dumb.
