newbie question on installation over existing Linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



If I choose to do a fresh install of CentOS 6 with "replace existing
Linux systems", will it also wipe out my /home directory? In the past
when I've done this with another Linux distro, /home was not affected.

Or, would I need to do "fresh" install and then muck with partitioning
using a Custom Layout? Right now, it's kind of looking like the latter
to me, and if so, will I lose data?

I spent some time on the Forums and reading the RH documentation, but,
no real answers to this specific question.

Thanks for any help.
