Near the bottom of this link above is a link to Anders Wallins page, but 
there it appears to be for 32 bit only, so I'll likely skip that.  The 
point is to make it work on a 64 bit install.

A fresh copy of Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS is being pulled now.  More later, bet on 
it. :)
But I will probably start by copying my email corpus to the new drive, and 
installing enough kde to get kmail , k3b and konversation, before I follow 
the rest of the above link. Thats fairly complex and may take a day right 
there.  Not to mention getting amanda transplanted.
 
I forgot to send this.  But I have now installed 12.04.2 LTS on another 
drive, then swapped the drives around to get back to a 10-04.4 LTS boot 
where I have all the tools.  The 12-04.2 drive s/b at /dev/sdb1 since its 
all on one partition with the new install.

12-04.2 refuses to get past the gateway address, so I have no networking, 
then the drive swap took about 4 reboots before it recognized the drives 
had been swapped around.  What the heck good is a hot swap cage when the 
system, not even the *&^% bios, can tolerate a drive being moved?

So I am back on the 32 bit 10-04.4 LTS install.  I need to take the better 
half to lunch, so it will sit here for about an hour.

And this time I'll send it. :-)

Are there any gotchas in the /etc/network* area that would prevent me from 
just copying the whole thing (network*) from 10-04.4 to 12-04.2?

Thanks.
