Changes in the formats of .files can cause problems though. Another way is to preserve a /user-data partition. /home can be in the / partition. When a user gets a spanking new home directory, he can add a soft link into /user-data. -- Michael hennebry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "Pessimist: The glass is half empty.
