If someone can clear something up for me I'd really appreciate it. It
concerns the partition setup screen during a clean reinstall setup.
When you reach the partition selection screen, considering you will be
reinstalling on a single partition, should you delete the existing
partition, then rebuild another single partition or should you go to the
next setup screen and simply choose a quick format and file system for the
new partition.
What's confusing is that if you don't delete the partition and just format,
I realize that cleans the old partition. What I need to know is whether
deleting the old partition and rebuilding it again is a cleaner reinstall
than just a format and reinstall.
I think I remember Dell telling me to delete the old one then format and
install, but the last time I did it, I think I just went straight to the
quick format and install.
Is there one optimum way to do the cleanest reinstall?
Thanks much
