If I'm not mistaken the knoppix-install only installs to a boot, swap, and main drive (/). Perhaps this is why it didn't work correctly. Besides, you really don't need a separate /var directory for basic desktop usage.
After reading the "Home Partition How To", I created 6 partitions:
hdf1: 50M
hdf5: 1G
hdf6: 256M
hdf7: 1G
hdf8: 5G
hdf9: 3G
Then I installed "Knoppix" in hdf6 and hdf8.
Afterwards I made this:
/dev/hdf1 /boot
/dev/hdf5 empty
/dev/hdf6 /swap
/dev/hdf7 /var
/dev/hdf8 /
/dev/hdf9 /home
... and modified "fstab". It worked.
Now I'd like to have this:
/dev/hdf5 /
/dev/hdf8 /usr
I tried... I made 'mv usr/*. ' in /mnt/hdf8. But I had big problems after rebooting with the floppy disk.
Maybe the procedure is not really good.
Thanks in advance.
