Hi All...

If you wish to install Ubuntu on a secondary hard drive in preparation for OpenFOAM, are there specific suggestions regarding that installation.

For instance, I found a helpful page that shows how to set up four partitions on the new drive, but for one of these partitions (/home) the suggestion is to be very generous, but does that mean use all the remaining space?

http://linuxbsdos.com/2012/07/23/dua...2-hard-drives/

Any other advice on installing Ubuntu for OpenFOAM would be greatly appreciated.

Please have mercy on me if I'm asking a redundant question. I have been looking through the previous postings and cannot find anything regarding this question.
