Hi,

I've installed suse linux 7.3 with no problems.
I have 2 hard drives; both are mounted properly.
The second harddrive mount point is /usr.
How do i access this second hard drive?
I want to store all my data on this drive seperate from the
Linux file.
Please help. I'm new to Linux.

Do you mean physically mounted, or mounted in Linux?

If the drive is mounted, whenever you access /usr, you are using that
drive.  If there are files in /usr on the first hard drive, you cannot
open those files while the second drive is mounted.

If you are this new to Linux, you should consider buying a linux distribution
that comes with a book.
