Hi,
I plan on upgrading from 7.04 to 8.04, preferably by clean install of Hardy.
Some questions regarding my configuration:
1) Any known issues on Hardy working on Lenovo Thinkpad R60e? (No specific issues can be found in Thinkwiki (http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Ubuntu_on_a_ThinkPad_R60e))
2) I have a dual boot system. I don't have a home partition...missed it the first (and only) time I installed Feisty. Can I work around this or must I first make a home partition and only then install Hardy? which leads me to:
3) Am i too paranoid in wanting to backup other partitions also - Win, shared, Thinkpad R&R?
4) Hardy comes with Firefox 3 beta 5. I'm using FF3.01 and want to keep it. Must I get FF3.01 from Mozilla (and enable Flash) or can I apt get it?
That's it for now, probably more to come..I'm dreading this a bit..
Thanks for any advice,
Udi
