Not on this end, have to wait for some more adept posters! I'm sure there's probably something you can do via the LiveCD and/or the gparted liveCD. I'ld imagine boot with the gparted CD and when you're done making another $HOME you could boot from the LiveCD and mount the drive to copy $HOME to the newly created partition. Or, wait a bit! :(

Either way here's a link (http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/) to the gparted LiveCD download.
