use network drives as mount points during installation?
- by ajsie
is it possible to use network storage locations as mount points during installation?
cause i want to separate system (ubuntu) with data (personal files).
eg. if i have 5 computers i don't want to recreate /home/david 5 times.
so i want to mount networkdrive/home to /home in local ubuntu server.
so ALL users home folders could be used and maybe also networkdrive/projects to /projects.
in that way its ok if i by accident repartitioned the local ubuntu server cause all data is not there on that server, but in the data server.
is separating "data" from "logic" good in this case?
and is it possible? what protocol should i use for the mapping over internet? (maybe the server is in Sweden, and the data is in Norway). thanks.
