read man mount_mfs. if anything is not clear, read it again.

make your /home/user with all files. move /home/user to /home/userx.
mkdir /home/user. make an empty diskslice with size of one sector (or more,
irrelevant), you need the disk label of it (e.g. /dev/wd0b)

have something like the following in your rc.local:

mount_mfs -s size /dev/wd0b /home/user
cp -R /home/userx/* /home/user/

there you go. this advice could be full of mistakes (you don't know me,
and I didn't test this, I just wrote it down), so understand what is done,
read the man pages.
