Don't do that! Set up the groups again and add new passwords again. > Remove the home directory No need to do that. Just install Debian with home, included to the / directory, instead of an additional partition. After installation you can remove /home and mount the home partition instead, by /etc/fstab. I prefer to keep everything within / and don't use a separated /home, so I have to copy an old /home, resp. I only copy emails and VBox settings, but anything else I set up again, so it for sure does fit to new versions of the used software. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
