I just can't understand how prior to updates, I can access my /home/user directory, and yet post updates the /home/user directory is no longer accessable. why should any update stop me accessing the /home/user directory??? I must admit that I'm getting a bit pished off here. FC2 continues to work just fine, and yet updates on FC5 are seriously screwing up the OS.
