Upgrade Question

[Matt Harrison]

Agreed...I always have kept my /home on it's own partition and never had any
problems.  And to reply to a bit earlier on the post...I am well aware that
Ubuntu is designed to just keep upgrading without a reinstall but I have had
problems doing that before from version to version...such as things I have
uninstalled magically getting re-installed when the update takes place.  It
may be designed to do that, but IMO a rolling upgrade should just upgrade
what I have installed and what is required.
