Hi,
I just took the plunge and made a clean install of Mavericks on an SSD called "A". On this volume I only have the system and the applications. My User Account is on a separate volume "B" and was not touched by the install. My third volume is a 4TB volume "C" with my Time Machine backup. My volume "B" is backuped onto the TM volume "C".
In the past I have had very nasty experiences with Time Machine, where a whole backup was deleted because Time Machine thought I was on a completely new computer. Now I don't want to repeat this experience. Unfortunately, when opened after the system install, TM didn't recognize neither volume "B" nor "C" as being the same as before.
Any ideas of how to make sure TM doesn't delete the old stuff? I don't want to try around and eventually lose everything.
Thanks!
