You know what all this is saying to me? "PCLinuxOS is buggy. Don't
use it." Having a virtualbox install hose X, having LiveCDs lock
up on multiple machines, and so forth are things that I just would
not put up with. Life's too short, you know?
If you are worried about your /home , the thing to do is to take
that USB drive, plug it in, mount it, then "tar czf /mnt/usb/
backup.tar.gz /home" , so even if your reinstall eats your /home,
you have a backup of everything on that USB drive and can get it
retrieved with minimal fuss. Just make sure there's enough space
on the USB drive and it should work fine.
