[CoLoCo] can't add user - path exists

[Jim Hutchinson]

I just finished installing hardy on a computer with a separate /home and
several users. During the install it only created the one user and used the
same /home as before. When I try to add a new user who also existed before I
get an error about the path existing. Of course it exists. I didn't format
/home and want to have the same users as before with their files and
settings. That's why I have the separate /home. So if I have a path like

/home/jim

and I want to make a new user "jim" how do I get around the error and have
it use the same path?

Thanks.
