I have a laptop with a UEFI boot system with two hard drives installed. The first hard drive is a 35GB SSD, and the second is a 500GB mechanical drive. In terms of installation I have no problem. I figured it out from the start, only changing the way that Ubuntu boots. I want to put my system files on the SSD and my /home directory on the other drive, so that the SSD won't fill up too quickly. Please tell me how to do this.

1Your question doesn't make sense to me. It sounds like you want to install Ubuntu, and you want to put your system files on the SSD and your /home directory on the other drive. You tagged the question with the "dual-boot" tag, yet you didn't mention any other OS on the laptop. Do you want to have 2 different operating systems on your laptop or just Ubuntu? – karel Jun 14 '13 at 05:26

You want to create a separate /home partition. This is most easily done during system installation by selecting the "something else" partitioning option and setting up /home on the spinning disk. You can do it after installing the OS, but this requires more effort. Numerous Web sites describe the process in detail. A Web search turns up quite a few, starting with:
