|    Ubuntu home Verzeichnis in Partition ver    |
|    03 Dec 25 15:41:57    |
      From: lothar.leidner@web.de              System: Dual Boot Windows 11 / Ubuntu 2204 LTS, installed on the same SSD.              To create more space, I wanted to move the Ubuntu /home directory to its       own partition on a second hard disk drive (HDD). I followed the Ubuntu       Handbook       https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2024/08/separate-home-ubuntu/       #more-47038, copied the original directory to /home_backup, and modified /       etc/fstab.              The result: Ubuntu no longer boots.              Now I wanted to undo everything, created a boot stick with live Ubuntu       24.04.3, was able to boot with it and access the hard drives, but only in       read-only mode. My plan was to copy the backup home directory /home_backup       back to /home and comment out the inserted line in /etc/fstab. Then, I       thought, everything should work again as it did originally.       My question: how can I access the partitions in write mode (from Live       Ubuntu) and thus implement these changes? Moving the /home directory would       be put on hold for the time being.              Any help appreciated       Lothar Leidner              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
