Mpa.  Apla m' aresei na kano CVSup kai na kratao spiti olo ton phgaio
kwdika apo kana duo leitourgika, opws NetBSD kai FreeBSD.  To basiko
susthma allazei, alla to /home to xrhsimopoiw se duo diaforetika
versions tou FreeBSD (kratontas ola mou ta arxeia kai th douleia mou
sta 8 GB pou einai piasmena sto /home tora).  Otan kano boot apo to
/dev/ad0s1a to idio /home to xrhsimopoiei mia xara to FreeBSD 4.6-RC
pou exei sthmeno ekei, eno an kano boot apo to /dev/ad0s2 to CURRENT
blepei to idio /home.

Den exei para mono duo users to mhxanhma.  Emena kai thn aderfh mou.
Alla kratame ola mas ta dedomena sto /home, ki oxi skorpia sto /data h
pouthena allou.  Den uparxei alloste logos.  Etsi mporo aneta na kano
reinstall ta panta, xoris na akoumphso ta basika dedomena pou me
endiaferei na einai panta ekei.  To /home.

Sto /usr exei 3 GB mono kai mono giati eniotha koubarntas otan agorasa
ton 45 GB disko kai den h8ela na ksemeino apo xoro otan kapote sthso
sto /usr/local kati megalo opws p.x. to KDE h to Gnome.  Ta / kai /var
einai minimal, xoris para polu eleuthero xoro, afou etsi einai pio
grhgoro to fsck an kati paei straba kai den pianoun peritto xoro.
To kuriotero problhma htan pou sto dialo na balo to /tmp.  To elusa
kanontas to /tmp na einai ena swap-backed MFS filesystem, kai dinontas
tou 500 MB apo to 1 GB swap partition pou eftiaja sto /dev/ad0s1b.

Telos pantwn.  Ennow oti exei kapoia logikh to olo pragma, den einai
tuxaio antiparadeigma...  Eidika otan trexoun duo CVSup kai kanoun
update ta /home/ncvs (mirror tou FreeBSD CVS repository) kai to
/home/netbsd (mirror tou NetBSD CVS repository), den einai mikro to
I/O sto /home partition.  Katholou mikro :-)
