How do you feel it compares to just installing from scratch while |
| 18 |
preserving whatever config and user data you care about? I've done |

that quite a few times and it usually takes about 2-3 hours for the |
| 20 |
initial install and then overnight to build a desktop environment (if |
| 21 |
one is needed). |
