Any changes you make in /home are not "part of" Mandrake so it wouldn't make
much difference if you were to go back to 9.1 from 9.2. That said, there 
are dot files in your home diredctory which may need upgrading or 
downgrading, as a result of executing programs in 9.2 and thenn re-
executing them in 9.1.

One other thing I noticed when I did the upgrade is that the groups got
changed around - different gid numbers from /etc/passwd. That can make it
a bit difficult if you need to access files in /home. But a quick 
chown will address that issue - so long as you make sure to get the dot-
files and dot-directories to change ownerships along with the rest of the
files.
