Help: Transfering HDD with customised Linux OS from Compaq to Dell
Hi!
I've a Linux installation (Shrike with customized applications) on a old machine with poor performance and I would like to transfer it to a new machine without a need of reinstalling everything from the scratch. I'm familiar with that task while using windows machines whereby the problem of drivers incompatibility is solved by repairing the installation, now in linux how do I resolve the problem? Do I also have to find similar CD of Shrike and repair installation after putting the hard drive on new machine? How do I do that? Just upgrading the OS will resolve the problem, or is there another way round to do that?
Thanks,
Stefano
