Mount new ~ to old one in another partition
#4
[member=6970]Roy[/member]  am I correct in thinking you are dual booting, LL 3.8 and LL 4.0 where you have LL 3.8 home on another partition. If so trying to use the same config files for both systems will break things.

An easier option would be to leave things as is, LL 3.8 with home on the other partition and LL 4.0 with home in its own partition. Then create soft links from LL 4.0 home to the data folders (Documents, Downloads, Music, Videos etc). That way your config files stay safe but you can share data between systems.

"Man ln" is a good source for soft links
