Hope it's ok to have 2 different category questions in one thread.
Category 'reinstalled OS':
I finally got around to reinstalling my OS.
Steps:
1. Chose "something else" method.
2. Set old Root partition as new Root partition.
3. Left remaining partitions (old Home and old Swap) as-is.
I notice that my new Home doesn't have any of my old files. Instead, under Other Locations, it shows two items: "Computer" and my old Home partition as "389GB volume" (same original size and all files are present).
Q1. Any easy approach to repartitioning the Home partition to include the old one?
Q2. Will I have problems with my new Home being only ~2GB? I don't know how the system plans to use more space if it needs it.

Category 'which wine?':
I can use Aravisian's instructions here viewtopic.php?f=5&t=15352&p=69240 or here viewtopic.php?f=5&t=15415
but I'm wondering if I can just use Synaptic. Which should I select from the attached pic?
I can't tell if it should be wine-stable or winehq-stable.
Thanks.
