Thread: Will I be able to Migrate everything in Karmic's /home partition to Lynx's /home ?


hello everyone,

want fresh install of lynx when time comes. have never migrated back-up of previous releases'/home. have karmic's /home on its' own partition , configure /home partition lynx. plan use rsync/grsync save karmic's /home on external usb drive.

so, able migrate in karmic's /home lynx's /home using rysnc, external hard drive? or, wishful thinking?

there "best practice" way, migrate /home partition new release fresh install?

links can forward this, helpful.

thanks.

i've moved /home several times, , it's easy. when install select /home partition , "edit" it. chose fs type , mount point, making sure "format" unchecked. being said, there slight possibility app may change it's config settings, cause settings not work. i've been migrating settings 2.5 years , have never had problem. have not heard incompatibilities in 10.04 either, should safe.
