Well, there's nothing to "import" from your existing home directory is there? If you want to "use" that partition, all that Gutsy needs to know is where it is, and it will mount it. So during the partition section you need to specify which partition you want to be swap, which is / and which is /home. Make sure you tell it not to format /home, but it will want to format / I suspect :) Cheers, Al.
