I ran out of space on my / partition and had far too much space on my /home partition, so I use GParted to shrink /dev/sda4 (/home) and expand /dev/sda3 (/). However, now that I have booted up, my home directory simply hold a folder called lost+found and there are no user file where there is norrmally /home/stephen. I shrunk my /dev/sda4 partition from the right and shifted it all over, giving /dev/sda3 more space.
Is there a way to make arch "rediscover" the drives with the changes I made?

I don't have direct access to another computer and for the time being am using the recovery console and so I will try to type out what I can, and if you need details, let me know:
proc on /proc ...
sys on /sys ...
udev on /dev ...
/dev/disk/by-uuid/hex_code_here on / type ext4
devpts on /dev/pts ...
shm on /dev/shm
/dev/sda4 on /home type ext4 (rw)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)Offline
Edit: Nevermind. I used deluser and adduser.
I checked the drive in another distro and cannot locate /home/user, so I think that it was destroyed. That's ok, as I had nothing important there. However, is there a way to "refresh" the home directory to the way it was when you first install arch. My root partition is undamaged and would like to avoid a full restart.
