Hi Quentin, hi Raphael,

That's one way to do it; another is to set the second hard disc as the 
/home partition during the install.

I appreciate the security model can be frustrating for a new user. The 
distro is configured by default for a multi-user environment, where you 
don't want to give write access to files outside of /home/username/ to 
just anyone.

Cheers!

Daniel
