Hi all,
Hi Volker,
has the feature to import users from already existing /home during installation been dropped?
I performed a new install on my EeePC, which had openSUSE 11.1 on it, and It allowed me to keep the previous users on the new openSUSE 11.2 install.
Hi Rui,
do you remember at which point in the installation procedere the option came up?
Yes, It prompts on the area where you are able to select the authentication options ( /etc/passwd, ldap, etc.. ). However, I installed another laptop today and the option to "use old users" ( do not remember the correct name ) was not shown. There is a difference between the two setups: My EeePC has /home on a separate partition which I did not format. I wonder if this is catch... Probably someone else here can enlighten us lit bit more...
I exspected it to be somewhere around the step of first user creation, didn't find it.
