Thread: Question about installation

-

not problem, more of question can prepared. on ubuntu 11.04.

have 2 main partitions on hdd: i) system , ii) user data. system (obviously) mounted @ /, , data mounted @ /home. these created when first built computer.

so, question is, if wanted perform clean re-installation of ubuntu, , wanted use same partitions: mounting first partition @ / (and formatting it), , mounting second partition @ /home, , not formatting it. want keep *all* same data.

simple case of going through install process, choosing correct partitions, mounting them in right place? can sure data not going wiped?

and, if install ok, safe have same usernames? assume might best rename (two) users folders before install, make sure there's no cross-contamination of settings, etc.

thoughts appreciated.

thanks.

as far know, having /home on partition not wipe on reinstall. have no experience on tho, keep whole install on 1 partition , data up..
