fedora-list Digest, Vol 4, Issue 206

[Ian Hilliard]

Thanks for the reply, but I don't believe this to be the case as I did a
clean install of Fedora Core 2 onto my system after wiping out my root
partition. My home partition is on a second drive (reiserfs), so it was
not such a big deal to wipe out the root partition.
