I did a update from 8.04 to 8.10 using the update-manager and it failed. I can not boot. I have a disc with 8.10 as well. I want to upgrade but I have no way to back up my /home folder. If I do an install without changing my partitions, will the installer automatically reformat my entire partition or will it just replace the system and application files?
