Perhaps others on the list are interested as well. Thanks, RVDo you mean to make one install then copy everything over to a new system? Dale :-) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list Dale: Yes, let say that I install a machine with all my basic software and want to set up a second machine without having to reinstall. What technique would you use? RV i start with a linux boot cd, mounting all my partitions for and exampel: /dev/hda1 -> /mnt/gentoo/boot /dev/hda2 -> /mnt/gentoo and so on mounting my usb-hdd to transfer the system to the second machine switch to the /mnt/gentoo directory tar -cvjf /mnt/my-usb-hdd/backup.bz2 * starting to drink some tee after this on the new computer making my partitions extracting all to the new hdd (tar -xvjf /mnt/my-usb-hdd/backup.bz2 -C /mnt/gentoo) and adjusting the fstab and installing the boot loader that should work if the system is nearly the same like amd64 -> amd64 or something like that |
