You'll also need to copy the modules for kernel x.y.z
(/lib/modules/x.y.z )- you also assume the machines are similar enough
to be supported with the same kernel (for a distribution kernel this is
probably valid -
Probably doesn't have to be said, but this also assumes the same
architecture. A mips kernel would probably not work on an i386 machine
(unless I'm mistaken in how generic the distribution kernels are--I
build my own).
It'd be *really* cool if linux & gcc/as somehow manage to produce code
that is meaningfull on different architectures ;-)
