1.3. Backing Up

• Before installing Ubuntu Server Edition you should make sure all data on the system is backed up. See

Chapter 19, Backups [p. 323] for backup options.


If this is not the first time an operating system has been installed on your computer, it is likely you will need to re-partition your disk to make room for Ubuntu.


Any time you partition your disk, you should be prepared to lose everything on the disk should you make a mistake or something goes wrong during partitioning. The programs used in installation are quite reliable, most have seen years of use, but they also perform destructive actions.
