Was willing to do a clean install other than home directory but the Live
DVD wouldn't do it.

Downloaded the full DVD last night and started the install today.  Same
partition settings as the Live DVD but it worked.  From a users point of
view, I couldn't find any difference between the Live and full DVD for
creating and installing.

In both cases, the previous version partitions should have been
recognized and offered to install over the previous version.
