I want to do a clean install of Tiger on my iBook, but I also want to preserve everything in the existing user folders. In the past I've always just 'upgraded', but I have a feeling my computer could use a clean start.
Is it as easy as backing up each user's home folder (to an external HD), then copying them back to the 'Users' folder once the OS is re-installed? Do I have to 'create' the user (in Accounts) first? Are there any other important steps? Is it possible to do an 'Archive and Install' with the archive directed to an external HD?
Thanks!
