I tend to reinstall my Slackware systems, for basic inet servers it 
doesn't take too long and it is surprising how much gets fixed that I 
didn't know I'd broken :)

With the price of har drives at the moment, I normally do the install on 
a separate drive and then bring across the files I need, any disaster 
and it is only a matter of seconds before the original can be running 
again...
