bg: Why not just copy it to a thumb drive? Brewster -- Thanks for the suggestions. I'm getting closer to being able to do my re-install, but here's another Evolution question. I now have the Evolution-backup.tar.gz icon on my thumb drive, but I'm not really sure what it contains. I've tried to take a look, but get into some long processes which seem like they may or may not end up showing what, exactly, I've saved. Question 1: Would this backup (theoretically at least) contain my myriad Evolution files and their contents? (Judging by the length of time to back up, it might.) Question 2: Once I've done my Ubuntu 10.04.1 install, assuming that I've indeed saved the contents of Evolution, where would I look for guidance in moving my files into the new version?
