Just a quick question.
When upgrading from LL2.8 to 3.0, can I keep the '/home' partition (to preserve configuration files) or should I do a complete clean install, i.e. delete the old '/home' under LL2.8 and install a new one under LL3.0? I don't know if this makes any difference, but maybe I should mention this LL2.8 set-up was installed on a PC in CMS mode and was not installed with UEFI.
Many thanks in advance for your feedback.
