I have the same question: I am upgrading from a Celeron 300a on an Asus
Motherboard to the MSI MS-694T Pro S370/FCPGA/2 Motherboard (with
integrated
soundcard) and a Cyrix 1Ghz CPU ... I am also upgrading to 256MB RAM.
Otherwise I have two IDE HD's, 1 CD reader, 1 CD recorder (none of them
SCSI), 1 Network card and a sound-card.

Do I have to do more than just change the hardware? Will RedHat (8.0)
discover the modifications


STEP 1, BACKUP ANY CRITICAL DATA, OR OTHER FILES YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE. :-)


Then, if you are using a standard redhat kernel (e.g. you haven't recompiled the kernel)
then changing the CPU and RAM should not affect anything.
As long as your two ide HD's and CD drives are placed in the same positions on
the IDE controllers (primary/secondary controller1/controller2), then there should
be no problems with that either.
If you are keeping the same NIC card there won't be a problem with that.


Go ahead and do the upgrade and then figure out the sound card config later.
   soundconfig may help.
You shouldn't have any problems.
