Thanks for the input, Amadeus. I ended up moving my data from slave drive to master drive, eliminating slave drive partitions, creating a single partition, and now have a /home2 2.2Gb directory! to use for something. I am somewhat confused about the upgrade from RH8 to Fedora. Can someone point me to an "official" document to follow? I'm attempting to do this with either yum (links keep popping up for duke, which then crashes my browsers), or apt-get (not sure where to download and install correct version). Any help appreciated.
