hiya

if your /home dir is on a seperate partition, then simply dont format it
when you reinstall, and everything should remian.

on a similar vein, does anyone have any experience with bacula backup??
i'm having major problems on a ubuntu 6.06LTS install. i'm trying to
backup to a usb hdd, which is currently vfat, however i think it maybe
better if i change that to ext2(3) and start again. any thoughts/comments?

cheers
