I do not think so. What "device drivers" will you have to configure? Can't that be done after you bring back the hard drive? Another way would be: Burn a NetInstall ISO such as http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso-etiona/iso/trisquel-netinst_9.0_i686.iso (for Trisquel 9) on a CD and

It would be hard to configure device drivers, as they'd be configured for the source (donor) computer rather than for the destination computer. I think this would cause more configuration issues than it's worth.
