Moving /lib?

Moving /lib? - 13/02/2000 00:04

I have been recently adding many programs to the empeg from the Debian ARM binaries, and need more space in /lib. It's the only thing I can't figure out how to move to /drive0 then link to /lib. Anyone know how this can be done?

I'm not an expert but you should be able to create a Dir on Drive1
then move the files from Drive0.. then link

ln -s lib /drive1/(insert whatever the new directory is here)

If I understand what the problem is and the proposed solution:

DONT DO THAT.

The mount program needs certain libs - if you put them on another partition then it won't work (you need mount to get the other partition mounted).

If you need more libs put the new ones in another directory and use LD_LIBRARY_PATH to specifiy further directories to be searched for libraries. You can also specify this in a config file in /etc.
