I remember losing data at installation time when slackware first came
out, and that was a while back. Since then the trick has always been to
make sure that your partition table is sane. There are tools out there
will do that for you. Of course, I may have been plain lucky, and
there's the fact that I don't like to complicate my work machines to
avoid these problems.

Clean install on an old Vaio laptop went without a hitch. Second try on
the same machine with a kickstart profile to customize package
selection also went without a hitch. Two tries of course are not enough
to build statistics on.
I won't install it on any machine I depend on for a while yet, until I
see the flow of updates. It's always telling when there's a GB of
updates within a month of a release.
