It's a crap shoot if the hardware will be "compatible enough" that an OS installed on one machine will run on another. And you are ASSuME-ing that the problem is hardware-related and not a software configuration problem that you'll move along with your software. That said, moving the image is a piece of cake, I've done it a couple of times around here with nothing but a Knoppix disk. With an external USB HDD, it shouldn't take more than a couple of hours. http://www.tedroche.com/blog/2006/07/01/hardware-upgrades-at-tra/ That said, you are far better off doing a clean install, but this is worth a try if you so choose. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
