That is why the home (~) folder can stay on /.
If you want to realy experiment, you can still put ~/home where you want it. For me it still comes down to this: Loose my data with an upgrade, or keep it?
To access your data, last SuSE creates /dataX folders with others partition, so they are easily mounted. it's then enough to link your valuable data to any home folder.
I don't get a /dataX if I only have one HD. There are plenty people who only have /dev/hda and /dev/hdc where the second one is a CD or DVD , writable or not. Think laptop. Yes, I know how to go around on not loosing my data. I and I asume most others here, are familiar on how to not have any problems. I can still see a huge advatage for the new Linux User if this would be done. -- houghi http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Making_a_DVD_from_CDs
