Hi,
have upgraded my 2011 mac mini to have a SSD for a boot disk
nice performance boost 
Being a linux person I thought I could just symbolically link the /Users folder to the original disk that came in the mac mini......apparently not.
I have rsycn'd the /Users folder over using -avp switches and then created a symbolic link, it moans about permissions logging in as users. manually add permissions to the users folder still has issues, not retaining settings eg do you want chrome to be you default browser.
I've moved the users folders to the sata disk in finder and then in system preferences users under advanced options changed the location of the home folder but still is not happy.
I've removed the users and created a symbolic link and then tried to restore from time machine, which fails as it says there is not enough space. Would suggest that time machine is not configured to follow symbolic links?
Is there something that i've missed...? or is it just not possible on mountain lion?
thanks
