Keeping partitions and differences between 9.1 -> 9.2

2 Nov 2004

      Using 9.1 I have four primary partitions swap, root, /export/opt and 
/export/home. I want to keep /export/home at all costs and keep the 
configuration size/type of the others for 9.2. What do I have to 
change (see below) ?

I notice the following changes from 9.1 to 9.2 :

reiserfs has already to be loaded with pxelinux.cfg. 
There is no <addon>MINIMAL</addon> in 9.2
Any more pitfalls ?

My current setup to install 9.1 on virgin disk :

     <partitioning config:type="list">
       <drive>
         <device>/dev/hda</device>
         <initialize config:type="boolean">false</initialize>
