[12:41] <Nivex> I have a USB stick with 11.10 bootable and some data on it. If I use usb-creator-gtk to install 12.04, will it just update the Ubuntu and leave my data, or do I need to blank it first?
[15:35] <holstein> Nivex: i wouldnt trust it
[15:35] <holstein> i would move the data off, format, make the stick, and put it back
[15:36] <holstein> it would likely just add 12.04... if you wanted to remove the 11.10 data, and make the stick, your other data would likely still be there... but for me, i would take that opportunity to back up the data, and format the stick
[15:42] <Nivex> That's what I figured. Was just trying to save some cycles :)
[15:44] <holstein> eh... if its something you do every 6 months, i wouldnt worry about it :)
[15:46] <Nivex> yeah, but it does make a difference in what data I store on it going forward
