Second harddrive
« on: March 26, 2010, 06:44:31 AM »
I have 2 harddrives on my computer. I was dual booting with PCLOS on second harddrive and another OS on the first.

I have reinstalled PCLOS beta 2 on my first harddrive and have nothing as of yet on my second harddrive.

My question is how should I setup my second harddrive? Mount point? any suggestions

I have 2 drives in my desktop. First drive holds PCLOS and /home and my second drive is data and I will also use my second drive to copy my /home before I install 2010. I chose this setup so either drive failed it would only be a slight inconvenience. I have copies of my data and /home on other external devices.

Nothing major just working with movies, saving pictures, music. I am thinking sometime learning how to package rpms and maybe using some of that space for that. The (2) harddrives I have are 320G SATA drives.
