restore website after kernal panic/ configure linux server

Our website at [login to view URL] was 'killed' by a kernal panic the techs said they could not ssh in or restore the website i have all the data backed up on my local hard drive i bought a new, dedicated linux? server at [login to view URL] you would complete the configuration of this linux/ centos 4.5 server (create a master FTP for me and whatever additional modules that need to be installed) then i would upload all of the files to the server you would restore the website (90% is written in PERL, you 'must' be an EXPERT in PERL) i have '2' other 'mirrored' sites that are nearly identical to the website you will be restoring... so that should make it a lot easier to restore? my website
