I would be inclined to do a fresh install in order to create the virtual system.
Install all the maintenance patches.
Install all the additional software.
Use 'ap' to transfer all the user accounts.
Use the following:
This will list all the files in those two directories that are not part of the OS, and you can check the files that have dates significantly more recent that either the OS media date, or the original install date.
Copy the contents of /etc/rc?.d along with /usr/spool/cron/crontabs.
Assuming you are using SYSV printing and not CUPS, copy the contents of /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces from the old system, after you have re-created all local printers on the new system.
Copy /etc/hosts, and /etc/resolv.conf from the old system.
If you use the same OS license on the new system, you will have to keep the systems on different tcp subnets, otherwise one of the systems will shut down.
