installing 3.2 and keep home folder intact
#1
After just about a yr of having LL2.6, I'm prepping this old machine to install 3.2 32bit but need to keep my home partition.

My partitions are:

Am I correct thatĀ  the following is what I need to do? -saw a vid on someone's post on this forum.

Something Else
select the Root partitionĀ  and use as ext 4 journalling . . .
select format, Mount as Root
Leave Swap as is
Home: use as ext 4 journalling . . .; do not format; mount point is /home; OK, Install Now; Continue

However, before I get there, in following the instructions in the online help manual to put the iso on the usb, don't I need to change this
Code:
sudo dd if=linux-lite-2.8-32bit.iso of=/dev/sdx bs=4M
to?
Code:
sudo dd if=linux-lite-3.2-32bit.iso of=/dev/sdb1 bs=4M

my usb show up under sdb1
