The caveat is that you will need to keep the same processor type or you will need to install the kernel for the processor you are moving to. In general if you stay in the same family this should be very painless. I swapped harddrives in a couple of systems and was very surprised that the system recognized the changed hardware, USB chip set, network chip set, etc. and came up on the new motherboard just fine. As always make backups first just in case. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
