[CoLoCo] partitioning (after the fact...)

[Ryan Taylor]

I'm about to switch over to Gutsy (I'm embarrassed to say I'm still running
Edgy...), and I've decided to do a "clean" install (I've mucked around with
more things than I should have over the previous months).  However I have
limited thumb-drive space to make easy to reload my /home folder...

In my currently setup I have three partitions (swap, / , and a ntfs
partition I've been using for music).  Can I use GParted or something to go
ahead and create a separate /home partition in Edgy, move (or copy) my
"home" files into it, and then go through the Gutsy CD install and it
recognize and use my newly formed /home partition?

Bad or good idea??

I didn't see a good answer on the forums, so I though I'd turn to the
list...

thanks in advance,
Ryan
