Hi,
I've been using Mandriva 2006 (KDE 3.4.2) with a separate /home ReiserFS
partition.
Today I've installed Kubuntu Dapper (6.0.6)beta (-KDE 3.5.2) on the same
computer (multi boot).
My question: Can I share my (Mandriva) /home partition also in Kubuntu
although those a different distributions and different KDE versions? Will
my (Mandriva) existing locale. Kmail, KAddressBook and bookmarks (both
Konqueror and Firefox) stay intact?
It is possible to share, using KDE configs between two versions is a MAYBE, and back it up before you try.
If it doesn't work, have separate copies, use bashrc to create a symbolic to the "right" one, hard link files like the address book if (only if) the format didn't change.
Make backups before trying!
