Hi Anthony,

With Gramps, I'd usually just export my data and burn to CD ... i.e. you 
can export your whole database to a file called backups.gramps.

Then you can clean install your machine, install gramps from the 
repositories, and simply re-import your data.

So you say you've burned some data to a CD ... what did you burn exactly?

Did you burn your /home/.gramps folder?

I've done a bit of messing around with Gramps, so if you wanted to email 
me off-list you're welcome to (to avoid clogging the list up). My email 
is callan at cruzn.net.au. Else post back to the list if you prefer.

Cheers
Callan
