minus-square@minorsecond@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoTrue. I’ll migrate my /home back to my root drive and use the spare drive to experiment with.
minus-square@tool@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year ago I’ll migrate my /home back to my root drive and use the spare drive to experiment with. Or just leave it where it is and mount it there too ¯\(ツ)/¯
minus-square@minorsecond@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoWell my home is on my spare drive currently lol. I guess I could just create another btrfs subvol alongside @home and use that as root.

minus-square@minorsecond@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoI’d normally agree with you lol, but I got laid off recently so I have to make due with what I have for now.
