I always clean install each new version of Fedora using the Workstation LIve, and preserve the data in /home. After reading this, I looked at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_partitioning_custom_btrfs_preserve_home and saw that it now specifically says not to use the Workstation Live on 41+. Does this mean that the only way to preserve /home when clean installing 41 will be to use a different medium?
Hi,
no, we are working on supporting re-installation with preserving your
/home subvolume.
I had a problem after my latest installation but I don't remember
what, and did just that. I initially didn't expect this option to show
up so I had already "wasted" time backing up my home directory and
during the re-installation I was immediately offered to create a new
root subvolume and keep the existing home.
I'm using the Xfce spin.

Xfce isn't using Web UI but I'm definitely happy how this went :)
Note: you should always backup your data before installation
Best Regards,
Jirka
