The title says it all, I’d like to switch my operating system and preserve most of my files. Any other info I should know before the move would be nice as well.

    If /home is on a different partition just don’t format it and set it to mount on the same place and you should be good to go. If it’s not make a backup, then create a partition just for it, install your new system, restore the backup, and next time you won’t need a backup.
