I'm assuming that /home is on it's own partition (you might clarify this).
when you say "no more /home", could youy explain what you mean by that.
The partition is still on the disk, correct ?
Is /home merely umounted, and you need only to mount it back ? or
has the /home partition been wiped clean (and is it still mounted when this
happens), etc.
