I want to put linux on a new computer, without having to rebuild all my applications. Following are the steps I plan to take:
Install a base system with the same network installer that I used for the source machine and without getting anything from the network. Copy to the new machine from old with: su mount /dev/sda3 /sD cp -dRvpu / /sD The drive on the new machine is bigger and of a different brand. For the copy, the new drive is attached to the old machine as a usb drive. am i missing anything? thanks, tom arnall arcata -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
