[Wolves] Upgrade Advice

[Peter Evans]

Just want to double check my logic on this before I totally trash my system...

Finally took the plunge and got SuSE 9.3 at the weekend and I'm keen to 
upgrade my current 9.1 install.

My system is partitioned such that I can leave my /home partition untouched 
and install over the existing partitions.  But if I do that then I'll retain 
all of the user specific settings for KDE etcetera, which may not be for the 
best.

Is there a recognised 'best practice' for what I'm trying to do?

Ultimately all I want to keep between distro's is my email and some of the 
documents and downloads I've got on the machine.  But with no access to an 
external hard-drive I'm a bit limited in my options.

Any advice is gratefully received.
