I need to spread my /home directory over 2 partitions (lots of images and
mp3 files)

These two lines below have been pasted from fstab. The first (hda6) was
generated during installation, the 2nd (hdb1) was added by hand. It looks
ok to my inexperienced eyes and everything seems to be working ok but I
just need reassurance that I've not done something terrible which will
come back to haunt me in months to come.

/dev/hda6 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/hdb1 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
