moving /home

[Michael Hennebry]

I want to move /home to another internal disk.
I know how to make the partition and to copy files to it.
What I'm not sure of is how to change things so that
the new partition automatically mounts as /home .
If I edit fstab and reboot will it stick?
Is fstab the point of truth or
will some program "fix" it for me?

I've read that editing fstab is the way to go,
but I've also read that fstab is edited by programs.
