Don't forget to back up stuff that can help you rebuild the system
quickly.  Like /proc/config.gz, or better yet just the kernel and
modules you need so you don't have to rebuild at all or generate the
sources.

Another thing that I think is highly valuable to back up, and very
often ignored, is the output of 'fdisk -l'.  If your drive dies it's
very nice to have a reminder of how it was formatted.
