Thread: Repair Installation ??

-

today decided reinstall of 9.04 because of problems having, , when choosing partition put on same partition, left format box unchecked because formatted ext3.

well, surprised when saw desktop after installed, changes had made still there, except couple small apps had installed.

more surprised see home folder intact stuff, seems needed updates , restricted codecs. google chrome still on desktop.

searched forum , google , come 1 thread on launchpad forum.

post interested me:

code:
firstly , available "recovery mode" 1 of options given during normal bootup. have useful features , unlike windows equivalent doesn't hose system.    during install there option of "manual partitioning" rather "guided" , can used to unticked "format partition?" option each partition. allows data , settings remain intact. however, suffers 'user-error' i'd back-up data before using this.    keeping data on different partition quite smart move - doesn't wiped during install    luck , regards  tom :)
i wondering why option not ever mentioned, seems save time if wanted repair install.

mine got fixed, synaptic works right now, installing programs , ubuntu not find them.
