Hello,
I am going to install the new version of R 2.14.1. After the
installation, I want to copy my installed packages to the new library. But
since over time I forgot which ones I installed I want to get a list of all
the packages I installed among the packages installed initially by the
R-installer. Is this possible?

I think the installed.packages() function can give you what you need, specifically look at the priority argument.

Running rownames(installed.packages()) will tell you the names of all packages of the version of R in which you are running the command. http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#R-Add_002dOn-Packages tells you the names of the packages which were installed with R itself.

Well, you could simply use everything from the old library and just apply update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE) in order to get the packages updated for the new release.
