Mike Might make an observation here, the problems with 9.2 are really not any more serious or problematic than I have observed in releases since 6.1 or whichever 6.x it was that I bought the box set for the first time. Most of the problems can or will be worked out farely soon. So save your /home stuff to a backup file in say /tmp or something and when you do the new install choose use existing partitions and mark all but the one you want to save to be reformatted.
