man fstab

* simply create a prtition
* mount it at /home
* you are done

if a existing /home is there, well, mount the new partition
to whatever, move all contents of /home after logout from
the graphical desktop there

unount the temporary mount of the new partition an dmount
it to the now empty /home, this is really easy to do
