I'd think it was possible to use dd to copy the file that contains the UML root_fs to a physical hard drive, but you would need to have physical access to the machine at the ISP, which is probably not a possibility. Maybe have them burn a DVD of it?

I'm on an UML server via my ISP, but thinking of moving to either a new virtual hosting service or a standalone machine. Is it possilbe to do an image of my UML installation and extract it on a physical harddrive, and getting it to boot? I fear I can simply forget this but it would be really nice since I've got a pretty complex system setup.
