Mine too.  I name the /home partition differently on all my boxes too, 
since it is hard to mount foo:/home and bar:/home on the box baz and 
have things in those trees that have absolute path names not fight each 
other.  better to mount /foo and /bar on baz (and foo and/or bar).  But 
maybe I'm just weird that way.
