I have just installed Ubuntu as my base OS. While installing, it asked me whether I want to erase everything or install along with windows. I choose erase everything.
Everything got installed pretty well. But, my laptop has a SSD along HDD. I don't know why,but just found out that Ubuntu's root directory is using just SSD and not at all HDD. (/dev/nvmeon1)
I am getting error low disk space every now and then. I have mounted the volumes of HDD yet, the root isn't able to use them.(/dev/sda)
I have 1TB of drive but not sure why Ubuntu didn't used it. Can I somehow use these volumes in root?(Though as I see those in the root partition table i.e. /dev/nvmeon1)I don't want to re-install it to resolve this. It would be great if someone can share their thoughts.
du
to look at your sizes of directories/subdirs./home
usingrsync
(preferably twice, to make sure you have an exact copy), then replace the original/home
by a symbolic link usingsudo ln -s /myHDD/home /home
. From that moment on, all access to/home
will be to your HDD. Replace/myHDD
with the mount point of your HDD.
