I've been waiting to update my machine to the new release -- my plan is to essentially do a new install, since I've had this machine running for a while, and I think it will be better than trying to install over the 7.10 release I am running.

I've copied my fstab and samba config files over to make the configuration a little easier -- what other files should I make sure I have? I will format the / partition, and probably keep the /home partition as it is, but I want to see if I'm missing anything else?
