restoring tarred backup



I have a backup of a functioning Woody system on a CD.  I used a script that was on the list a week back or so.
I modified it and it backed up all directories except proc and tmp.  I need to restore my system using 
this backup.  I installed a potato base system so I could boot.

Is restoring as simple as untarring everything, typing lilo and rebooting?  What do I need to look
out for when restoring?
