    I am running out of space on this drive.
    I know I can just add another drive to the system and use cp to move the
    contents of /home as root
    But I want to know since this is not a install what file system would be
    best for the new /home ?
    I have heard some good things abour reiser file system do to with
    journaling and recovery.
    I forrmatted the partition when I created it on another system which had
    a windows utility just to be sure the drive was ok.

    What I am unsure about is all the command line switches for mkreiserfs
    and weather I should use the defaults manually or use yast partitioner.

Strangely the bios did not see the drive but yast partitioner did and all I did was reformat it to reiserfs and copy recursively as root from /home then fix fstab. ...
