That's good to know. Even if I manage to get this desktop cleaned up
and working, I'm considering saving up enough money to upgrade to a
new mobo. (This one's been working for about eight years, now, and is
showing its limitations.) When I do, there's no reason not to get one
with enough RAM to need a 64 bit system, meaning, of course, a clean
install. Hearing how easy it is is very good news.
I just went from a 6 year old HP nc2400 duo core to a new Lenovo x120e
single core. 2Gb mem - 4Gb and 60Gb disk to 320Gb. I would recommend a
duo core. I THINK I can notice the difference even though supposedly
the Lenovo single == the HP duo in bogomips.
I ALWAYS did a clean install between versions. rsync ~/. to a backup
drive install, the move things back (like ~/.ssh !).
And each time customizations I did in /etc were different so why bother
to try and keep them around. Just make sure to maintain a list of
everything you installed so you do not forget anything! A common
problem with me.
