iwar:
sorry if i confused you! Gold_finger
maybe its my bad English.
Jerry is working on 100 files, we foreigners had prob with additional program  and i only say i vill wait to his finish than I
install a new 2.2 without formating hdb.  Thank you for talking to me

gold_finger:
iwar,

Please specify who you are directing the question to?

You've responded a couple of times now indicating that you've been in contact with Jerry, but none of that appears to be happening within this thread.  So I don't know anymore whether your questions are directed to me or Jerry.

If directed at me -- I don't know what you are asking.   Please re-read my last post and tell me whether or not you still have a separate drive partition that contains your LL 1.06 Home?  If you do not, tell me if you have a copy of it somewhere that you can use to restore your data to the new LL 2.2 installation?

iwar:
hi
yes i saw the disk that had ll 1.06 / had a lot of free space and i have run that quiet som time at least a year
there is a lot of space free on /dev/sda if i follow your example what do you think, do a logical of rest and mountit as? /usr or   

iwar:
Yes this is how it will be:

From what you said, I think easiest thing to do would be install again.  But this time, choose "Something else" option during installation and designate all three partitions.  If /dev/sdb1 was the old 1.06 home and it still has your files on it, then make sure you set the mount point ("/home") and file system type (whatever you used before - probably "ext4"), but make sure you do not format the partition.  If you format it, it will get wiped out.  If you don't, your data will stay there and be ready to use when you boot the machine after installation.
 Thanks But i wait to Jerry is finish whith the 100 files :-)
