[Ti] Alternatives Location for the Home Folder

[Sambouka]

I do the same thing that Dr. Trevor does, I have my iTunes and movies 
on my external and the rest of my home folder on my PB. I also have a 
backup of my Documents on my external just incase.

I highly dont recommend having the applications running on a different 
partition. I did face a few complications in the past.
