I don't believe it is possible for a user to create a partition. Of course that is more of a brain-fart on my part, because it's not so useful to your situation. Gparted should be able to resize unmounted ext3/4 partitions, and from there you can create a new partition, copy your /home directory there and edit /etc/fstab to point to the new partition.
I found these release notes: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes, but it looks rather short, and doesn't mention django. Fortunately django has its own release notes here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/releases/ which should help with the upgrade. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, I've never used django. -Efraim On Thu, 15 May 2014 16:00:00 +0300 Uri Even-Chen <u...@speedy.net> wrote: > Thank you, it's a good idea.
