My Home drive

I have a seperate Home drive (sda3). My main drive is sda1. After installing Zorin Lite to sda1, I want to make my Home drive my home folder. How do I do this?

This is what I have done so far to my fstab file:

Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=fc5a4089-7ed6-4f40-be36-c9d3357d558c /               ext4    errors=remount-ro 0       1
# swap was on /dev/sda2 during installation
UUID=6c89c566-13c5-4640-9bbb-31a8bb55c84d none            swap    sw              0       0
UUID=46f2c656-06e6-4f0f-9e78-42f02f9fbaff /home           ext4    defaults        0       2



When I reboot my computer, it boot fine but I don't have an lxpanel with the applications menu etc... What do I have to do so that whn I restart my computer, I have a panel?

Hi, not using Lite to be able to answer that - wait for Wolfman! In the meantime please read this in respect of your main issue of having /home on separate drive:

Your config looks good, just need to doublecheck it, try running
Code:
blkid
to get the UUID's and making sure they match what is in fstab.
And make sure we have all the partitions you are trying to mount
Code:
sudo parted /dev/sda print
