Absolutely. Linux isn't Windows... The only thing you might need to reconfigure are the obvious things like network card and video card. Other than that Linux is very happy moving from one motherboard to another. > I would like to take my current hard drive out of this P4 box and put > it on a new mobo that has a dual core processor. Can I do this without > any issues? You might need a new kernel to take advantage of the dual core, but other than that it should be smooth as banana cream pie. You definitely shouldn't need to reinstall.
