I'm running Caldera 3.1 WS with three scsi drives. One drive (sdb) is
going bad. I moved /var from /dev/sdb4 to /var on my root partition
(/dev/sda1) and that worked - except cups doesn't print anymore but I'll
fix that later.
I have /home on /dev/sdb3 and need to move it somewhere else. It won't fit
on any partition but /dev/sda2 which is currently mounted as /usr. I
went to the SxS and the man pages. Is there anyway I can copy /home to say
/usr/home and then mount it as /home? I tried various forms of mount and
can't make it work. I don't have spare partitions on this system to use
either. I just need to keep it running until I can get my RH 7.3 system
delivered and installed.
My swap partition is also on the bad drive but I don't have anywhere to
move it.
Thanks.
