Solved: Getting bookmarks into Firefox from Windows
Newbie here. I'm dual booting PCLinux and Vista. How do I go about getting all of my bookmarks into Firefox on PCLinux? I've tried the import feature but Firefox says there is no program that contains bookmarks.

Open up Firefox:

Bookmarks/Organize Bookmarks/File/Export

This will create your Bookmarks.html file.

Now, in your other Firefox install on PCLinux:

Bookmarks/Organize Bookmarks/File/Import

It will say something like import from file, and you just point it to wherever you have
the bookmarks.html file you created earlier.
