    Hi,
    I tried updating to FC2. My /home directory was
    located on my second harddisk (samsung spinpoint wih
    121GB) previously. So I wanted to leave my /home as
    is, i.e. not formatting it and not having to backup
    everything. But FC2 recognizes my ext3 /home partition
    as a win32 partition... what a shame :-)
    Help!?!!
    Thanks!
