All that should be required is that drives being connected in the same way. i.e. What's /dev/hda on one PC should be connected as /dev/hda on the other. *After* booting you might have to reconfigure things to accommodate any hardware changes. Running "kudzu" might be all you need to do. Otherwise it's probably a case of redoing your network, X server and sound card configuration, etc. Oh, and any special kernel parameters you've got in your grub.conf file might need altering. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
