Failing that, if it does have something to do with your home
partition, you could try binding a directory on another partition to
your home directory (after first copying over the important files from
your home directory....)

I.e.
cp -R ~/.* /media/DifferentPartition/cr
mount -o bind /media/DifferentPartition/cr /home/cr

Not the cleanest of fixes but it should work (hopefully)
