Install 2nd Hard Drive

[afderrick]

Okay, so my current setup is this:

I have a 250GB hard drive with a separate partition for my home folder.

I just bought a new 640GB hard drive to house music/movies/etc that I don't want to keep on the main hard drive.

I plugged everything in, when I turned the machine back on it would boot into Ubuntu but was unable to find my home folder anymore. I logged into a failsafe terminal mode and when I got into the home folder sure enough it was empty. Does anyone know any workarounds for this?

Thanks!

Give us an idea of your partitions/drives; post:

sudo fdisk -lu

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders, total 625142448 sectors

Partition table entries are not in disk order


Is what currently prints out. I currently have the new hard drive unplugged.

If the second drive is connected; you have to review your wiring.
(it has to be formatted too)

so once I get it formatted and in the correct order is there anything extra I need to do in order to have my home folder continue to show up? It was weird that I could boot into ubuntu but not have my home folder show up.
