How do I reinstall LL safely in a win7/zorin/lubuntu/LL multiboot?

Yes user names with capital letters will cause problems with certain packages. Spotify comes to mind at the moment. Some applications simply won't recognize the user name at all. Better not to, even though they will work and show up at login. Generally one capital letter at the beginning of name does not cause as many problems, but it's best (and more code efficient) to stay with lower case. Case sensitivity varies with some packages, especially cross platform things like Wine or Cygwin. Lower case is certainly best.

Thanks for above.


Incidentally,  I tested adding "SamTheEditor" user to a VBox of Mint as per method outlined above.  That worked fine, but when I tried to use Mint's gui "Users and Groups" program to delete that user it would not work.  It would have no problem deleting "sam-the-editor", but would not delete "SamTheEditor".  So, yes -- using caps will likely cause problems somewhere along the line.
