Joomla - using the same menu for header and footer, but showing extra link in the footer...?

I'm trying to setup a website menu in Joomla 1.7 but I'm having difficulty because I can't add home link twice. It says something like 'alias is already used', or another weird error. I created two menus: one called main menu other called footer menu. I'm adding like 6 pages as single article.

I'm guessing I have to use main menu twice, and just load it into two different menu modules: one for main menu, one for footer. The thing is, the footer menu has 1 more link than the main menu. Is there a way I can add a link to main menu, use the main menu for both main/footer menu modules, but only have that extra link appear in the footer module?

Really stuck here, need your help.

Thanks

Just create the second menu (and the corresponding module) for the footer
with Menu Item Types Menu Item Alias associated with first menu items
and add to the second menu one more item of the requested type.
