Suppose I have a hard drive, my only HDD, and I want to keep my home directory as a separate partition, sda3
. Now consider that I wish to use two other partitions, namely sda
4 and 5 to install two distinct operating systems, say Ubuntu on one and Fedora on the other. In that case, how can I get this done?
I understand that a home directory is not merely a storage directory but is also integrated into the functioning of the system. But it is also a conveniently organized and accessible common location and hence I would like for it to be accessible from both these systems.
Can I do that?
