Hello all,

This is my first post on here and i'm not sure if it's on the right place, so please forgive me if it's not.

I have the latest POL install and working great, no issues there at all. My problem/issue is my main drive is a 120gb ssd drive that i do not want to fill up completely. I have a 2tb hdd installed also. This hdd drive is mounted and has the necessary  permissions. I am wondering how to, if posible, to get my POL installed applications on to the hdd. I looked through the forums and faq and didn't really see anything. Any help or input would be greatly appriecaited.

 

My Specs are as follows;

FX-6300 @ 4.2Ghz

HD 7870 ghz edition

8gb ddr3

78lm-usb3 mobo

Kingston v300 120gb

WD Black 2tb x2 (one ext4 the other ntfs with windows data)

OS is Linux Mint 17.1 Cinnamon 64 bit

Create a symlink from ~/.PlayOnLinux/ to the folder on the new HD that you want to link it to. It has to be the EXT4 partition, though. You cannot do it with NTFS (not that I am aware of, anyway.).

Actually, I don't think that we have a link to the wiki on our site yet, just because it is still a work in progress, though it does have useful stuff like that available. :)
