I had that way, but so many things symlinked that I thought it would be better to.... :P

And yes, you can only symlink directories that can be stored on FAT partitions, so no executables, symlinks, etc are possible inside the symlinked directories.
I think you meant the opposite. You can symlink to ext2/3. And my card is ext3, so it should be no problems. But for some reason it didn't work. Not sure why.

EDIT: I put /home/user back, and everything went back to normal.

Thanks!!!!
