I've set the / volume for 30gb and it's getting full now. I want packages and programs to be installed in /home partition and I don't know how.

I want to install things into my /home partition!!

A /home/ is intended for personal documents; not for software installation. Besides that not all computers are just by just 1 user and this saves a lot of space for all of us.

If you do want software installed in /home/ you can though: install from source and you can tell during compiling that installation directory should be something in /home/.

If your system is full with 30 Gb you should consider examining why. I never go over 15Gb and that is with apache and mysql and a fairly large database. Maybe there is something you never use that can be deleted.
