Restoring Centos after rebuild?
So I'm going to rebuild a Centos server in order to have the disk encrypted, it's a clean install (no data on it yet) other than it was tricky getting the GPU/drivers to work properly.
So I want to take a backup before I rebuild, that way I just set the partition layout the way it was before and choose to install with encryption, then restore the backup so that all the necessary drivers/packages are already on there with no fuss.
I'm sure there are multiple options, is there an "easiest" way to do this? I was thinking of two ways, either a tar backup or Clonezilla partition backup prior to the rebuild, just want to verify that whichever way I do the backup, that whatever packages and drivers, specifically the funky GPU drivers are transferred back over in the restore to the newly encrypted machine.

apache2::build
Apache2::Build(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Apache2::Build(3)
NAME
Apache2::Build - Methods for locating and parsing bits of Apache source code
SYNOPSIS
use Apache2::Build ();
my $build = Apache2::Build->new;
# rebuild mod_perl with build opts from the previous build
% cd modperl-2.0
% perl -MApache2::Build -e rebuild
DESCRIPTION
This module provides methods for locating and parsing bits of Apache source code.
Since mod_perl remembers what build options were used to build it, you can use this knowledge to rebuild it using the same options. Simply
chdir to the mod_perl source directory and run:
% cd modperl-2.0
% perl -MApache2::Build -e rebuild
If you want to rebuild not yet installed, but already built mod_perl, run from its root directory:
% perl -Ilib -MApache2::Build -e rebuild
METHODS
new Create an object blessed into the Apache2::Build class.
my $build = Apache2::Build->new;
dir Top level directory where source files are located.
my $dir = $build->dir;
-d $dir or die "can't stat $dir $!
";
find
Searches for apache source directories, return a list of those found.
Example:
for my $dir ($build->find) {
my $yn = prompt "Configure with $dir ?", "y";
...
}
inc Print include paths for MakeMaker's INC argument to "WriteMakefile".
Example:
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
use Apache2::Build ();
WriteMakefile(
'NAME' => 'Apache2::Module',
'VERSION' => '0.01',
'INC' => Apache2::Build->new->inc,
);
module_magic_number
Return the MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER defined in the apache source.
Example:
my $mmn = $build->module_magic_number;
httpd_version
Return the server version.
Example:
my $v = $build->httpd_version;
otherldflags
Return other ld flags for MakeMaker's dynamic_lib argument to "WriteMakefile". This might be needed on systems like AIX that need
special flags to the linker to be able to reference mod_perl or httpd symbols.
Example:
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
use Apache2::Build ();
WriteMakefile(
'NAME' => 'Apache2::Module',
'VERSION' => '0.01',
'INC' => Apache2::Build->new->inc,
'dynamic_lib' => {
'OTHERLDFLAGS' => Apache2::Build->new->otherldflags,
},
);
