I am currently using Ubuntu 15.04 x64 and now want to switch to Debian so for that I have prepared a bootable usb stick but I don't want to lose my data that are in /home directory of Ubuntu but also I don't want to use Ubuntu (although it is good OS ).as I am not very expert with Linux installation so my question is how can i use the same /home of Ubuntu for Debian like as we have in Windows only by formatting and installing in C: drive we can able to preserve our other disk(ex: D: or E:) with the data. I know this is not very good question, but according me I have only one way to preserve my data of /home directory and that is to take backup in other usb stick or external hard disk, it would be very good for me if I can preserve it without taking backup in other usb stick or external hard disk cause i have data upto 30 GB in my Ubuntu /home directory and don't have any external hard disk and also my other usb stick is only 8 Gb in size.please any one help me and yes I am not expert in installing Linux but I know I can do it easily if anyone just let me know how to preserve /home directory while installing new Linux distro.
