Should have broadband again today, so going to download an ISO and endeavour to fix my broken Jaunty.
Now, a week or so ago somebody said to me that to preserve my data I simply asked it not to format the partition, which would leave /home intact. Two questions :- a. are there any potential side-effects to this (eg. files left from the corrupt version that interfere with the new one)? b. should I set up the default username as something different to the original (ie. if I use the same username could it decide to delete and recreate the user, thus blanking the home directory)? Any advice greatly appreciated, Best, Sean -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
