As I posted previously, removing /home (which defaults
as a link to /usr/home) and putting it back, this time
as a directory did the trick.
I read it in Greg Lehey's book.
Thanks for your help Derek

Does the mount succeed? On the new /usr does home actually mount?

Michael, firstly let me quote the head of your original message, just so
I/we don't get too confused, especially by all the gratuitous re-quoting
of subsequent 'relative irrelevancies' like your dmesg ..

which was a link and was pointing to /usr/home and

Thanks everyone for their suggestions,

What I had done:

to have only one partition (da2s1d) which I chose to
be /user (note the e).
I tarred /usr to a file in /user

As soon as I mount the old /usr (the one on the
smaller drive) I log on into my home directory no

Well, is there a directory
I tried the earlier suggested dump/restore:
%cd /user
%dump -L -f - /usr | restore -r -f -
When I log-in over ssh I get:
Could not chdir to home directory /home/michael: No
such file or directory.

*** When I untarred the file I had everything under
/user/usr. I was under /user/usr and then I did mv *

I then edited fstab and changed
/dev/da2s1d to be /usr, instead of /user
And of course the old /usr I switched to /user

Good morning everyone,
