I have a really basic question; when one configures hardware for linux, is that configuration always lost when a re-install or upgrade is performed or can it be saved? Given: a Linux drive with 3 partitions (root, swap and home with the OS and related packages installed on home). If only home were formatted during install, would the customization and configuration need be done again? I have almost no time to actively work on Linux during the week. Still I find it difficult to think about anything else and most everything else seems a distraction. <g> Dave -- Dave Burrows 741 Cleveland Road Washington, PA 15301 USA
