## Installation

~~~shell

sudo su

curl -LO https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases/latest/download/nvim.appimage

chmod ugo+x nvim.appimage

version=`./nvim.appimage --version | head -n 1 | sed -E -e 's/.*v(.*)/\1/' -e 's/\./_/g'`

mv nvim.appimage /usr/local/bin/nvim_$version.appimage

Use ```sudo pm-hibernate``` to hibernate. (Does not request password when resuming!)

~~~shell

sudo sed -Ei '/^\[Disable hibernate/,/^$/ {s/^\[Disable hibernate .* (in)/[Enable hibernate \1/; s/^(ResultActive=)no/\1yes/}' /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla

Create a backup:

```

sudo mkdir /disks/main/home-backup

sudo rsync -av /home/* /disks/main/home-backup

```

Move /home/* to /disks/main/home/*:

```

sudo mkdir /disks/main/home

sudo rsync -ah --progress /disks/main/home-backup/* /disks/main/home

sudo rm -Rf /home/*

echo '/disks/main/home /home none bind 0 0' | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab

```

Remove backup **after making sure everything works**:

```

sudo rm -Rf /disks/main/home-backup

```
