All I am backing up is the contents of my home directory.  What would I 
need to back up along with the directory to make it boot able?  My 
thinking was that if I had a problem like a hard drive going bad or a 
corrupt OS, I would reinstall the OS and then copy the contents from my 
backed up directory in to the newly created home directory.  My main 
concern is my iTunes, Documents, and Pictures.
