No, thanks (am reading the installation guide first! :) ). Now revealed 
the local disk structure:

sda1 vfat, sda2 vfat, sda3 [blank], sda4 swap, sda5 ext4, sda6 ext4

No mountpoints are shown. What tool is available to determine if sda5 is 
the /home directory of the previous (mandriva) installation? I want to 
perform a base installation, leaving the /home directory un-touched.
