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. --knitti
