The partition / is formatted while /home is kept intact. During installation, only non-root user added is "ndeb". - After installation is complete, the system is rebooted and I login as user "ndeb" only to find that the ownership of /home/ndeb (and all files in it) belongs to user with UID 502, which is different from user "ndeb" because /etc/group shows this one entry: ndeb:x:501: Also, there is _no_ UID 502 in /etc/group or /etc/passwd . Naturally, I can't read many files in my own home directory!! The only way out is to be root and change the ownership of /home/ndeb to ndeb using "chmod -R". This problem was not there in LM9.2beta 1 and 2.
