re-installing Debian

[jim grimsby]

Hi, 
Yes of course the easiest way to do this if you have another drive handy
you can set it up install debian on it and then get your stuff off your
old drive.  
Then format it and use it as a secondary drive.

Is it possible for me to add a partition now, without wiping out what is

already there?

Yes, precisely. Which is why this is such an important question now.

Most people seem to take the easy way out, until they learn, sometimes
the hard way, that taking a little more consideration for future needs
is wiser.
