Need to split /home

[Wil McGilvery]

Why not just put one sym link in home to a directory on a new disk and move everything into the new directory?

Subject: Need to split /home

I have one production server where /home has outgrown its disk. It is 
using all of hdc as a single ext3 partition.

Is there some clever way to split a directory like /home across 2 disks 
(partitions)?

In lieu of a better plan I may end up just using symlinks for the 
directories inside /home that I move to the second disk. But this seems 
like a crude way to do it and doomed to be somewhat of a maintenance 
problem.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Michael
