Hi lefty.crupps, thanks a lot for the advise. But I'm a newbie so please guide me trough: 1. I login with the live CD (that is, I boot with it), then in the desktop I use "set up" (sorry, I still don't have the CD, I'm downloading it
). As I don't still have the CD, I wonder if what you mean as "partition" is "formatting", please correct me if I'm wrong.
Then I repartition (format) the root and swap and leave the home as it is (by the way, I don't have any important files in it so, if it is easier and better, I would erase or clear everything fresh). How do I set the old / to the new / ? By this you mean the /root? Should I repartition (format) the /home too if I don' need the files therein?
By the username you mean that when it asks me or a name I use the same one I used in mepis?
So, I insert, set up, repartition (format) / (/root?), /swap and no-/home (yes-/home in case I don't need it?) with new (with the procedure you're going to tell me
) and follow instructions and that's all? If that's true then I'll start as soon as I have the cd.
Please correct me, add or modify as you please, you're the experts. Kindest regards
