For starters, backup your home directory (this is where a separate partition for /home comes in really really handy). This may help you with what packages you currently have installed: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-get-list-installed-software-reinstallation-restore.html IIRC you might be worth doing a backup of /etc too just in case you need it. You should be able to burn everything on to a CD (or DVD) through the CD/DVD creator by dragging everything over (copy it, not move!).
