Just go to the home folder. Open hidden file mozilla(i.e, .mozilla), there you find your book marks. Just save the folder and place it in the equivalent folder in the new installation. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04. In my system my book marks are in, /home/sooraj/.mozilla/firefox/ypwg318r.default --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ "Freedom is the only law".
