Easiest way is to go to single user mode with 'init 1', then, assuming you have
hdb1 mounted as /usr/local , you'd do this:
# cd /
# tar cf - home | ( cd /usr/local ; tar xvpf - )
# mv home home-
# ln -s /usr/local/home home
Then go back into multiuser mode, and make sure it worked. Once you're sure it
worked (i.e. you can log in as a user whose home directory is in /home and see
all your files), you can do this:
# /bin/rm -rf /home-
to get rid of the old version.
