First of all a warm hello to the Ubuntu community.
I recently made the move from windows to Linux and I am happy to having got rid off all the MS stuff. Trying out a few distros I decided on using Ubuntu and Mandriva (wife likes the flashier stuff, what can I say ;)).
My question is how can I partition my hard disk in such a way that my /home is separate from both the Ubuntu and Mandriva part but accessed by both as my default home folder.
I apologise if this might seem as a simple thing but I am an utter newbie to Linux, although willing to sink my teeth in it.
Thanks in advance.
