Burn /home (and all the directories/files starting with a ".") to a CD/DVD > Short of taking screendumps of everything...is there another way? as root: dpkg --get-selections >> ~/current.packages Check this file and remove any that you don't recognise/want to be installed on the new version, then save it to a backup somewhere. When you have the new system installed, run (as root) dpkg --set-selections < /path/to/backup/current.packages it should then install all the packages that are listed in that file _and_ pull in any dependencies.
