I have a single user system and I want to set my home directory not to /home/username
, but to /home
. How can I do it so nothing would blow up?
It would be fine, if the solution would avoid something like linking /home/username
to /home
.
Any ideas?
/home/kamil
. IMO changing the default is not worth the hassle, unless you have a good reason (but then compare XY problem). Let's suppose you did the change and everything works. Then you install a program that uses/home/$USER
where it should use$HOME
. Or it adds a non-system user for whatever reason and takes a subdirectory of/home
over. Or you want to create another user to test something. My point is the idea may backfire in the future. Maintenance burden.
