These options are in Selective Install for Networking object.

Then don't reinstall. Fix what's broken.

Yes. You will lose lots of settings for your currently installed
applications. How much depends on the application and where is saves its
settings.

It's going to replace everything. Upgrade installs over Warp4 are not
supported, although some tools are provided.

This is your opinion. I've installed Warp4 successfully on lots of new
hardware. The process is simple, but it must be followed.

eCS is easier to install in most cases, but there's no 100% guarantee on
this. The eCS installer is new code. Stuff happens Just go to the eCS
newsgroups and browse the install support groups.
