Just copy and paste your .mozilla folder in home directory into your new
installation and you will get all your
preferences/passwords/bookmarks/extensions back.

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

If you have the /home directory on a separate partition all these preferences
and personal stuff would be safe even after an upgrade.
