Moving /home

[Larry Hartman]

I like this answer  :-)  .....but more importantly to me, how do I get the 
home directory moved from its default location on hda1 /home/usrname to 
another default location, say hdb1 /home/usrname, or any other directory for 
that matter?  

I prefer the KDE windows driven answer, but am unafraid of the command line 
driven answer.
