Bug Description
Does the Ubuntu 8.04 CD have a repair option? I've posted two questions on issues that have come up on my notebook using Ubuntu 8.04. Until these problems arose the system operating flawlessly. (the two posts are: 44695 & 44791)
I'm thinking that in order to fix the underlining problem I need to repair the installation. Would running the installation CD wipe out the existing installation thus requiring my reconfiguring the system back?
Thanks in advance for your time in answering my question.
