Re: [Trisquel-users] Error while trying to update trisquel 7 to trisquel 8 : Could not calculate the upgrade

It's very useful to have home partition with Debian based distros because the  
upgrade process it's a nightmare, so if you have home partition you don't  
need to upgrade your system, you can make a clean install preserving home  
partition and you will not lose any of your stuff in home partition.
