Some good information was passed on this list where someone used the 
install disc to have it setup devices again. I recently used that 
suggestion when I had a computer go dead on me. When the disks were 
moved to an industrial computer things worked properly after video, 
network and other minor adjustments. Before running the installer the 
disks would not boot.
Probably not a sure fire method to moving disks to totally foreign 
computer but a good last ditch effort for some purposes. Mainly, my 
setup was too complex to do a fresh install.
