I want to put linux on a new computer, without having to rebuild
all my applications. Following are the steps I plan to take:
Install a base system with the same network installer
that I used for the source machine and without getting
anything from the network.
Copy to the new machine from old with:
su
mount /dev/sda3 /sD
cp -dRvpu / /sD
The drive on the new machine is bigger and of a
different brand. For the copy, the new drive is
attached to the old machine as a usb drive.
am i missing anything?
