Briefly: I’m running Kubuntu right now, just installed a second ssd. If I install another distro (say opensuse) on it, can I tell it to use the same /home that kubuntu is using (which is on a separate partition and drive)? Actually looking to switch distros, but I want to keep all my data where it is on the bigger hdd, while moving games to the ssd.

If you want/need more details:

  • ssd1: windows, kubuntu /
  • hdd1: kubuntu (opensuse) /home
  • ssd2: (goal) opensuse /, second partition for games

      Glad to hear it. Good luck with your computer!

      Oh, and make sure that when you’re running opensuse’s installer that you tell it to NOT format your “universal” home partition. And just to be safe, backup your data somewhere else before doing anything!
