Well, something to think about, having a machine around for backup would
be good, in case the machine died for a hardware and not software reason
(which a backup obvsiouly wouldn't help). W/ bru (or tar ro what not) the
harddrive will need partitions on it, so it would be best to reinstall,
then restore from the backup (then you wouldn't need to backup /usr too,
which would save time).
