[Blackpool] Ubuntu Upgrade plan...

[Jon Chamberlain]

Planning to upgrade my laptop from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.10 soon.

My plan is as follows:

     1. Backup Evolution using native backup function
     2. Backup all of /home 
     3. re-install from liveCD into existing (re-formatted) Ubuntu
        partition
     4. Restore /home from backup
     5. Restore Evolution from backup


Then: bliss. Or, as is usually the case, start fixing up what's been
broken (which may include GRUB and Windows dual boot, if you remember my
experience last time).

Before I commit laptop harakiri, any suggestion for improving my chance
of having a happy experience? ;-)
