Reinstall Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04

I’m not very satisfied with my current system, which was dist-upgraded from Dapper. I’d have only 6 GB for /, and 5 GB for /home, so that now it has little free space now. I decided to reinstall the whole system, and got all ntfs disk formatted as ext3.

  1. Backup the most important data:
    creat a new ext3 disk, mount it using gparted
    copy all files to this disk, including .mozilla, .mozilla-firefox, .mozilla-thunderbird, .gaim, .vim, .dict /opt/lampp and others
    delete any ntfs disk
  2. Install
    disable network connection to prenventing slow download packages during install
    select english
    pation disk, 15 GB for /, 1 GB for swap, others for /home.
  3. Install Chinese language support
    set ADSL: sudo pppoeconf
    system–>administration–>language support–>check chinese and uncheck english
  4. Restore data
    copy all .* dirs to /home/jieying
    reinstall xampp, copy wordpress to /opt/lampp/htdocs/, install wordpress
    sudo chmod 777 /opt/lampp/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/
    import the old blog
  5. Install other application
