[CentOS] Migration Assistance

Good Afternoon,

I have been tasked with migrating a machine sitting on RHEL 5.6 off a
rackspace cloud server to a local machine. In order to cut costs we would
like to utilize Centos 5.6. I have done quite a bit of research and have as
of yet been able to find a clear answer on how to accomplish this. I have
installed Centos 5.6 locally and am in a time crunch to complete this. I am
hoping that someone can explain how to achieve this requirement.

I did create a .tar file of the / partition of the RHEL remote server and
rsync'd it locally. Hopefully I can just copy certain files from this .tar
file to the new machine. Any and all assistance is tremendously appreciated.

Best.

Brian
