Did you split your hard drive?


do guys partition hard drive easier reinstalls?

read posts partitioning hard drive on yosemite got more tricky before. anyway using disk utility can see able split 2 partitions, not more. why not? 2 partitions need, if down road decide want partition linux or bootcamp? , able merge 2 partitions 1 if want to?

moreover, want /users folder set onto second partition. found different tutorials accomplish. 1 of them pretty straightforward http://computers.tutsplus.com/tutor...-folder-to-another-drive-or-volume--mac-48822
other tutorials claim editing /etc/fstab needed.

think many mac users, besides me, have several volumes convenience. how guys accomplish things that?
 

you not able manipulate partition on drive @ point because yosemite install converted drive core storage. if want manipulate partitions, need run off core storage running command below in terminal. disconnect other drives first.

code:
diskutil cs revert /
then once core storage off can shrink existing partition following this guide. can click plus add partition @ end.

of said, there little advantage putting /users folder on second partition , not it. hoping accomplish this?
