Did you set up /home on its own partition?  If you did, that will go a
long way to saving stuff, as you then simply choose not to format that
partition when you reinstall.  That and /etc holds just about everything
that would be customized, but you can't put /etc on its own partition.

:-(  It's kudzu, like the invasive vine.  Perhaps 'drake doesn't have
it.  Is there an option on boot up for interactive start up?  We have
that with RH.
