Hello. I have been thinking about a neat solution to sharing media files (music, pictures and movies) between users on my computer.
When FC4 comes out I'll hopefully buy a new harddrive and installed FC4 on it. I want to use the old HD to films, music and so on. Perhaps it can be mounted to /media/ or something?
Can I do this during the installation of fedora? I'll need to format the old and new drives and tell fedora where I want the old HD to be mounted.
Also, I'll need to give all "normal" users read/write rights to the entire old HD. Anyone who knows how to do this?
Btw; will there be any performance gain or loss with this solution?
