<p>Choosing in the installer to format a partition as any format will indeed format said partition.</p>
<p>It is possible to relable an ext3 filesystem as ext4 but conversion is not part of the installer... it is something you would have to do manually yourself.</p>

I do a fresh install of Lucid on my Karmic. Preserving /home<br>
partition, but converting it from ext3 to ext4.<br>
After the installation all of the data in /home is gone.<br>
I thought converting ext3 to ext4 won't result in such case?<br>
Thank you.<br>
