I was blown away by how easy it was.... Since I discovered my mistake half
way through the install I had ZERO files to save...
I took a gamble and put the 12.04.2 LTS DVD in and it gave me the option to
blow away the first install or try to keep some of the Apps... Well I went for
the full install... The install went quickly...
The only problem, the older version didn't like my video card and I could only
get one monitor to work... So I put in the 12.10 DVD and I'm now back on that
version....
Now if I had data and lots of stuff configured the down-grade / up-grade /
down-grade would have been a different story...
