Create the new target directory (or just do a base installation) and copy over /etc/setup/installed.db from your backup. Then make sure the versions in that file are all out-of-date w.r.t. the mirrors: sed -i.bak -re 's/( .*-)[0-9.]+-[0-9]+\.tar/\10-0.tar/' /etc/setup/installed.db Then run setup again and (modulo obsolete and removed packages) it will install all those packages that your old installation was having. Of course you will then also have to copy / re-create any customizations that you did directly in the installation tree (like in fstab.d or sshd keys from your old installation).
