You're going from an AMD to an Intel.. I wouldn't expect too much in the way of plain sailing. All the motherboard devices will be different to start with, plus what's plugged into them. Linux will hopefully just look at the changes, shrug and carry on, but I wouldn't count on it. Do you have /home mounted separately to the rest of the system?After a long, long wait I'm finally getting a new PC. From a single core athlon 2ghz to an intel quad core 4ghz super monster :] Anyway, how much chance is there of just taking the OS drive (intel ssd) out of this machine and slapping it into the other and expecting stuff to work? I am expecting to remove the current nvidia drivers off this first, and also comment out the swap from the fstab as its on another drive currently, oh and comment out the various other hard drives until I move them over later on (all using UUID's so "should" be painless. Anything else that might help make things go smoother ?
