It would be nice to know a bit more specific informations!

Please tell us where do you want to delete something? In KDE?
Was the home directory moved?

Best regards

yea sorry about that, I am useing gnome, whatever the lastest version is (I also don't really know how to check on that...), and i am useing the gnome file browser. I did not change the location /home, when I put in the HD I formated it compleatly with only 1 partition since this is just my data drive. There will never be an OS on this one, strickly for files. I edited the fstab so that is now is this:
Code:
/dev/hda1      /boot      ext3      defaults,noatime   1 2
/dev/hda3      /      reiserfs   noatime         0 1
/dev/hda2      none      swap      sw         0 0
/dev/hdb1      /data      reiserfs   noatime         0 1
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0   /mnt/cdrom   auto      noauto,user      0 0
#/dev/fd0      /mnt/floppy   auto      noauto         0 0


and it boots up and mounts it just fine. The only problem is I can not move anything from /dev/hdb1 to the trash bin on /dev/hda3, and I don't know why, but from /dev/hda3 it works fine. Actuilly i was also thinking of making /home on it's own partition, I am assuming i would get the same problem though, and i would want this one fixed. Thanks!

I'm not into GNOME very much, so I can't tell you what exactly the problem is. But it might be, that GNOME has strict links to the trash bins and the new HD has no link yet.

Are you able to move things manually from hdb1 to hda3?

Best regards
