I've tried moving /home to another partition but every time I reboot I have to manually mount the partition as /home. I've added this to the fstab file:

/dev/hdc3 /home ext2 defaults 0 2 (and variants)

but still no luck.:(

If I do mount -a everything works fine untill the next boot.
Is there something I'm missing?

You can add your mount command to /opt/bootlocal.sh

Thanks.That did the trick.

Can I use that file to automatically start the ssh server? Or is that done elsewhere?

the /opt/bootlocal.sh works just like an autoexec.bat in the DOS world.

just put a & at the end of each line.

mine loads inetd, monkey, betaftpd, and sshd.
