A word of advice to all players and mods/etc- DO NOT install NEI or reis minimap, or any minimap program. Yes, you'll get lost, but you won't crash. To anyone with access to creative mode- DO NOT spawn any blocks in if you can help it, or items. You can and will corrupt the world if you place non-modded blocks.
The backup is complete, and the files are being purged from the system. Uploading is the next step with a modified whitelist to test the server stability during initial world gen, followed by open play. That is all.
