Hi,
My linux server root partition is almost full (/ partiton) advice me how can i increase by adding another hdd to my machine. We use IDE hdd.
If your / partition is holding everything currently then you can try migrating your /var and /home to the new harddisk. Make sure the new disk is formatted and contains partitions of appropriate size to hold data in /var and /home. Then rsync the data to new partition, and mount the new disk.
