If truth to be told, and I do hope you will not misunderstand what I am going to write here ... this is NOT the system's fault. Users need and 'must' do a backup for their system NO matter what. Whether you are installing Linux or any system in this world, backup, backup and backup before you carry on :) "better safe than sorry". Also, whenever in doubt, simply ask :) If you have a bad install at the beginning, you can ask for help: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/ContactUs Linux is not Windows. While many things by re-installing the system, their problems got be solved, this is not really true. In most cases, you can solve any issue without the need to do a re-installation. You should have asked :) Anyway, as I always believe in and say, if you won't do a mistake, you will never learn. We are all learning and I hope you will never ever face the same issue again. Should you need any help with your instillation, please do ask :) Thank you for choosing and trying Ubuntu GNOME! -- Remember: "All of us are smarter than any one of us."
