"things" for your current install might be /home only. Perhaps xorg.conf
and some other files, using cp -pr while you're root. But in the future
completely backup using e.g. tar. Note, if you sync, you anyway might
lose data, since you might notice some issues after doing several
backups and not already with the backup that did cause an issue.
