Don't do netcat, create a fresh PV with the same installed packages
as on the old machine and copy the configuration of the old server
that is pertinent. You could look at creating a kickstart file to
have those packages installed during the initial install, or just
install base/core and add in by hand the missing packages via yum.
For data partitions like /home you can do a dump, sftp, and restore.
