I migrated my data and lvm, all my data and its backup lv's from Arch to
Ubuntu. I decided to use Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I forgot how easy it is to
install Ubuntu with its graphic installer. But it isn't just the
graphics installer but the installer itself would go out of its way to
install this despite my "mistakes". For example I want to mount my
Musiclv to /home/AUser/Music but made an account for BUser and so on. So
it happily installs ubuntu but after booting and starting my BUser
session I quickly found that there are two user filesystems for home.
One for AUser and the second for BUser. On second thought this method is
the "safe" way to do this. My hat's off to Ubuntu. I also have to check
my /etc/fstab if my lv's were given the right mountpoints. I have four
lv's to check and they were all there and the data is safe.
The bad news is the stock GNOME config files for the desktop wreck havoc
on Unity as it became confused with my Wallpapers and just presented a
black wall. I had to manually type in my keyboard shortcuts.
I have internet connection from the get go. Never lost it.
