I have a laptop that is running U9.04 in ext3 and I would like to install 9.10 as ext4 and with the new GRUB2. I don't want to loose my data. What is a ;good way to go about this upgrade? I don't have a tremendous about of data, so I could burn the files to a CD-R or CD-RW, or to several flash drives. I am wondering about all the applications I have added over the last 6-months and my personal settings and such.
So is there away short of a clean install to get the ext4 file system and GRUB2?
I have very few files on my Netbook so I think I could copy to flash drives or SD media cards and then do a clean install. That is if I can update the USB flash drive that I used to install initially.
