What solutions are out there?
normally in such cases you install a template setup on one machine followd by a image of the complete disk (from a live CD or stick) and install the image on the spare disk man dd make sure you have a *full initrd* and if you avoid specific graphics drivers the installation will boot on most hardware [root@localhost:~]$ cat /etc/dracut.conf.d/91-host-only.conf hostonly="no" ________________________ in case of RAID10 systems i vene put two of the 4 disks to the new machine and make a RAID-rebuild on both of them if the system does not boot up you chossed the wrong one but since it wil not boot at all no harm - try different disks to move
