I don't know of a cookbook--I've had to do some clean OS installs, myself, but had to completely redo Fink, too.

You should also reinstall daemonic, if you're using it.

I used Carbon Copy Cloner to make disk image, so I have that. I've re-
loaded /sw using ditto. I've reinstalled XFree86 though I haven't tried
it (there we no errors as a result of the reload at least).


I have a couple questions. Now that I've gone through all this and
figured out a bunch of things on my own, is there a cookbook procedure
out there somewhere that I could follow that addresses my circumstance?
Finally, and most importantly, what if any packages need to be reinstalled
so certain users that fink likes are recreated? Would that be passwd?
Any others? Perhaps some packages need to be reinstalled due to other
issues such as suid/sgid?


Thank you,
