Creating new partition for user files

Hi,

I've currently got Ubuntu installed on a single ext3 partition, but
now want to MOVE my "user" files to a new large ext3 partition. What
is the best way to do this? Do I need to label this new partition as
"/usr" or "/home" or which other path would it be? Basically I want
everything that currently resides in all my "/home/<users>" directory
to be on this new partition.

What changes do I need to make elsewhere (Grub menu, etc.)?

Thanks for any help!

-Steve.
