Help installing a new slave IDE drive.


This is my next Linux project

I want to install a new secondary IDE hard drive. Is there a step by-step guide to doing this or resources you'd recommend for a Linux newbie? I can do this in my sleep under Windows (what the hell - you plug it in and there you go) but I can say, add more space to solely my /home directory?

I guess the process will be harder because of the whole contigious file system thing.

Any resources or great tutorials for a beginner? I'm only using the command line, so no GNOME/KDE stuff please Oh, and I'm using RedHat Fedora 9 too.

Thank you!

By coincidence a good article about this subject appeared today in Linux Today:
