+1 on this. Separating /home from the rest of the filesystem is most
definitely a Very Good Thing(tm). (Especially if it's on a second hard disk,
then if your primary disk goes ka-put, you still retain your user's data and
configuration. Though, this should not preclude you from proper backups,
just in case! ^_^)
