Readers,
Tried:
pacstrap /mnt base
Which failed, due missing mountpoint. Similarly with '/' (/proc in use).
What is the correct command to instruct installation using the existing
filesystem (previously mandriva: /, /boot, swap, /home partitions)?

Does the moutnpoint exist? If not, what happens if you create it and try again?
What is the correct command
Yeah youl need to mount it to different mount points

If you are using the live iso, nothing is mounted by

Why is it necessary to make a new /home directory within the root
system, when a separate /home partition already exists?

YOu need to make a /home directory to be used as the mount point for the
/home partition you already have. You won't be able to mount a
filesystem on a directory that doesn't exist. You need an empty /home,
and you will be able to mount the partition there. The genfstab script
will see it mounted
