Hello Robert, I see you already have the new system installed. Not very helpful for now, but for your next migration it might be easier if you first copy over passwd, group, shadow... and then install the server packages (the ones that create users in the 101-999 range). This way you would be able to copy most (all?) data files over without worrying about UID mismatch.
