So I'm new with ubuntu and so far I just love it :) I am now thinking how to perform full system backup, so that all my system settings, all my programs and packages and everything I've tweaked so far (desktop environment, window manager, etc.) is recoverable.
I could use deja dup or any other backup origram to backup the /home folder.
I have been using a virtual machine (Xubuntu 12.10, with VMWare on a windows host) for all my programming work, which I am trying to transition from a 32-bit install to a 64-bit install.
In debian based systems once my system was set I'd do something like this to create a list of applications and be able to wipe-install base then reinstall my favorite apps and servers with one command.
I have long wished for the ability to install a Debian system specifying both the package list and the exact versions of the packages installed. dpkg --get-selections | ssh newhost dpkg --set-selections is useful but always chooses the latest version, and especially when using testing or unstable, it is sometimes necessary to temporarily downgrade a package from the latest version available.

Also, I assume I should create a /var/www to put my sites in there (want about 4 domains pointing to this server.
As I have a clean slate, would be great to get advice on the correct way to get set up.

I've installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise a few days ago. I tried installing LAMP Server as I've been done in last four Ubuntu versions, simply by using these commands:
$ sudo apt-get install lamp-server^
$ sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
First command seems to install all needed packages for LAMP to work. It installs and configures Apache Server, PHP Modules and MySQL server, all in one.
Hi
I have installed Ubuntu Server onto a virtual machine, only packages installed 'LAMP', 'Mail server'.
Hi I get to the state where apt-get isn't able to install almost anything.
