I don't know about forcing the install, but you can mount the second
partition as /misc and then...
login as root
mv /home /misc
ln -s /misc/home /home
What's really nice is that if/when you upgrade/re-install, you can...
re-format the OS partition
install the OS
login as root
rm -r /home
ln -s /misc/home /home
...and you're off and running with your new linux version, and your data
hasn't been touched. This algorith is something I learned back in my
Windows days, when I seemed to be re-installing every month or so.
