Hello 

you just supply dump each FS to file on mounted partition from the linux box
pkg_info <options> > /home/...Documents/pkg_info.$(date +%Y%m%d).txt  
one cold-backup of each partitions (done only on version update)
then a "classical" dump or a rsync or both to mounted point from the linux box 
(/mnt2 for example)

This may be suffisant to be able to rebuild fast in case of problems.
