help (backup)

Hey folks I messed up my kubuntu7 and I want to do a fresh install. But first I want to save all my stuff on an external HD. All I get when I try to boot up is command prompt. How exactly do I mount the HD and what commands do I have to put in for it to copy all of my stuff.

Please tell me everything, don’t assume I know; for I am an absolute beginner with Linux. Please help thank you
