home-directory

I've seen a ton of tutorials on how to move your home directory to a separate partition.

I want to do the opposite.

I have two HDDs. One /home/ and the other is everything else (both drives have only one partition). I'm selling the computer but want to keep one of the hard drives. So, I'd like to move the home directory and system files back onto a single drive. Which ever way is quickest/easiest (separate partitions or all on one partition).

Thank you!
