User issues.

I have done 3 installs (net installs, all different mirrors).

And everytime when I login to the new system, add a new user, the user then dosent own their own home directory,

I have tried different filesystems as well, still same error.

Anyone else had this problem?

Re: User issues.

Several other people have had this problem, I don't know how they fixed it, though.

I think it has something to do with a separate /home partition not mounting correctly, not sure, though.

Re: User issues.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: User issues.

Why not chmod /home/$USER? Is your /home partition mounted also? Do df -T | grep home?
