I'd like to point out that at this point, it's entirely possible to
use a LiveCD to handle the entire process - as you're not running the
system your modifying, so moving /home to /home_old and creating the
new /home with it's fstab entry is fairly easy.
And though it may just be me, it strikes me as a somewhat safer way to do it.
