My $0.02:  If you don't -know-, then it will probably be faster and less
painful to just do a fresh install/config than dink around with any
possible quirkiness you may run into trying to shortcut the process.

You may not actually hit problems doing what you suggest.  But without
knowing for sure, it seems silly to try and salvage it this way.
