OK. This is actually a problem. Last I lost ALL my data upgrading from Mint 15 using that option.

There is nothing in the warning or the process flow that could have prepared me for the loss of close to 1 TB of data, etc.

I genuinely expected the installer to UPDATE the Mint only. So optimistic was I that I thought my /home partition would be spared - It's usually shared by Mint and Open Suse.

If not in the wording of the warning - (honestly, if you tell me that am gonna lose Linux Mint 15 data, I expect to lose Linux Mint 15 data ONLY), then at least introduce a summary step which tells me that, "hey, this is what's gonna happen. You click that freaking button, we wipe your disk. Feeling lucky?"
