As to how to do it, make your partitions and make the file systems (Yast might have some cool way to do this, I just use the comand line). I find it is better to trust the well used programs before depending on newer programs. I just use fdisk . But for some one new for the first few times of partitioning use a util that has a easy to understand interface. Delete everything under /home (scarey. Be sure you confirm your tar command worked as you think it should have). Root is a powerful account and will not forgive typos. DOUBLE CHECK your commands. This is VERY true. I was just doing a simiple cp -a
then rm -fr dir with out CHECKING well yesterday when I went looking for the data and it was no were to befound. I still don't know all of what I lost. <A HREF="http://theverge.com"><A HREF="http://theverge.com</A">http://theverge.com</A</A>> - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
