How to allocate a new directory to a particular partition?
 

When I create a new directory in the root how can I indicate that it should be allocated in the same partition as /home?

ALSO: The default allocation put 12Gb in /home and 33Gb in /usr. I'd like to reverse those numbers, putting 33Gb in /home and 12Gb in /usr. How can I do this?
