Greetings,

I'd like to introduce myself as a new user to this list.

I have been using various flavours of unix/linux/ppc linux since 97 so I am
fairly a new user, maybe, in comparison to some of you.

:) ok so now I jump to my question.


I have a G4 powermac that I have semi-succesfully installed Mandrake 9.1 linux.
This soon to be file server has two scsi hard drives.
I would like to have my /home partition located on both scsi hard drives so that
/home can have the greatest amount of space allocated to it.  

When I try to do this, the installation/partitioning works fine, but after the
installation and succesful reboot the /home directory is only as big as the
space allocated for the first scsi drive 'ID 0' excluding the other allocated
space from the second scsi drive 'ID 1'.

Does any one know what I am doing wrong?


Also, the /dev partition is recognizing that there is another scsi besides sda
which is sdb... my second question would be could I grow the /home directory to
sdb after installation, if so, how? <---I have tried this as well.

Any comments suggestions would be most welcome.

Thank you.
