I have computer which I have upgraded every six month or so from 26
September 2014, starting with Fedora 20. I want to do a fresh
installation of Fedora. I have a 3 Tbyte disk with two partitions, 500
Mbyte for /boot and the rest is one physical volume which is divided
in three logical volume /, /home and /data. I want to reuse the
old /boot for a new one and also reuse / while preserve /home
and /data.
Is this doable without lot of work?
The last time I did an install, using the custom install option would
have allowed that. I haven't done a fresh install for a while, so it
might have changed. I would ignore the /home and /data while
installing, making sure they aren't touched by the install process.
After install, add them as mounts in the /etc/fstab file. The home
created under / during the install will be masked by the new /home from
fstab.
I don't consider that a lot of work, but YMMV.
