Sure glad I did not reinstall Ubuntu. Whew!!
Unless you really-really-really screw things up, you usually do not have
to. Linux is not Windows ;-) Even if you had to, with /home on its own
partition a reinstall would not have been an issue, you just have to
choose the "Something Else" on partitioning and only format the "/" and
set the "/home" partition mount point and NOT FORMAT it.
A tip: If you use gparted or e2label and give partitions labels. Makes
moving partitions and data easier...
sda1 "12.04-root"
sda5 "old-home"
sdb1 "14.04-root"
sdb5 "new-home"
So from a live session when I mount both drives it is easy to keep
things straight when I copy my profiles from old drive on sda to new
drive with newer version of Ubuntu on sdb...
