I've thought about that too, but I was wondering what would truly be easier. The dump/restore option sounds good, except that I don't have another machine with a large enough harddrive to do the job (and am a poor grad student with no cash for another HD :( ) I do, however, have another machine running a full backup of this machine using backuppc with nice compression/pooling, and so that was why my original plan was just to reinstall and then try to re-emerge everything.
