Hi all
I've done a fair bit of google / forum searching and can't find an answer to my question. I hope you can help me.
I've been using a usb portable* install of Jaunty for long enough to want to use it full time. The portable version is persistent, using a 3gb casper-rw file.
When booting from the usb, I am offered the option of installing Ubuntu to the host machine. If I go ahead and install, does anyone know if the settings / applications in the casper-rw file will make it across? And, if not, does anyone have any suggestions of how I might transfer all my settings?
This is my first post in a linux forum, so please forgive me if I've not presented my problem as well as I could have.
Many thanks in advance,
Enzo
