Hi people,I have Etch happyly installed, on its own hard disk, in a Pentium 4 with this and that hardware.I just bought a brand new Intel Core Duo 2 based PC.Given that I can just plug the debian HD into the new system, what's the best way to move my Etch to the new PC?I suppose it's not as easy to just boot it up there, as most modules would mismatch.
If you have a debian stock kernel installed it should just work, by that I mean at least boot.
If you compile your own kernel for specific hardware then install a stock kernel before swapping the HDD.
