During installation or after? After installation, you can add a line to
/etc/fstab like:
/dev/hda6       /home   ext2    defaults        0       1

This will mount /home at boottime.
Adding noauto will not mount it at boottime, but you can mount it later
shortly with 'mount /home'.

Greetz,
Sebastiaan
