Ubuntu shift root mount point
I just got my Kimfushi and do a default OS install. But I find out that they mount most hard drive space to /home. Is there anyway that I shift those 1.7 T space to "/" without reinstall?
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 20G 1.5G 17G 9% /
devtmpfs 2.0G 4.0K 2.0G 1% /dev

You will need a OS reload.
But on second thought you can delete /dev/sda3 (if it is the last partition on sda) and recreate 2 partitions, one for /home, and the other for your usage anywhere in / [Only do this if you know, and at your own risk].
To extend / without loosing data is risky. Safe bet: Reload your OS with the desired layout.
