Re: Skipping disk erase on Debian text-based installation (fwd)

["D.J.J. Ring, Jr." <n1ea@arrl.net>]

If you have your /home files on a separate partition, the manual installer gives you the option of NOT formatting that partition, picking it for the /home partition.  Then only - typically - the root / partition and swap are formatted which takes only seconds.

Is there something I missed in your question?

Subject: Skipping disk erase on Debian text-based installation

Hi all,


I wonder if we can avoid disk erase process during debian text-based
installation?

This process can take hours and it can be skipped on GUI based installation.
Unfortunately it is not accessible :)
