After building myself a new HTPC, I decided to give Linux Mint a shot.
There really isn't all that much difference between them, honestly, so for a while I figured it wasn't worth switching back, but I've changed my mind, and would like to come back to the flock.
Could I just upgrade from Helena -- Mint's version of Karmic -- directly to Lucid, or could that cause problems? Should I clone my HD to an external drive, and then use the migration assistant? What settings + customizations might I lose in the process?
Are there other methods you'd recommend?
