I switched from Mandrake to Debian about 9 months ago. I saved my home=20
directories, and I saved my fat partition, and blasted everything else=20
away. About the only things I had to reconfigure in the home directory=20
were new pixmap paths in windowmaker, so it wasn't too painful.=20
(Barring systemwide settings that I just completely blew away and then=20
retyped into debconf frontents, but even those weren't horribly painful)
