You basically need to change the profiles directory, right?

By default it is $HOME/.mozilla/firefox for linux and something more 
complicated for windows.

I don't see any relevant switch in firefox(1) . 
In fact, /usr/bin/mozilla (the shell script) seems to assume that
profiles sit at $HOME/.mozilla/firefox . Look for 'HOME' in it.
