Thanks Eric. I should've mentioned that I'm familiar with the Migration page. As far as I can tell its instructions are for an update of the OS with /opt/local still in place, not a reformatted, wiped and clean install.
What's the recommended way to reinstall previously installed ports (in 10.7) with all previous port configurations onto a reformatted hard drive running 10.8?
