What happened was that I spent a lot of time configuring computer "A", and rsync'd the root filesystem onto disk at computer "B". I then rsync'd from hard disk to computer "C" and everything was fine except that the hardware is clearly different. My X came up fine (I manually ran Xorg -configure, but as for the rest of the hardware such as sound and "other hardware" was clearly not the same so I used firstboot. The instructions were: 1) mv /etc/sysconfig/firstboot /etc/sysconfig/firstboot.bak 2) rm /etc/sysconfig/firstboot 3) chkconfig --level 34 firstboot on 4) reboot On rebooting, the screen starts in text screen, then "flips" over to gui screen, then back to text screen, repeatedly, "forever" 5) If 1-4 does not work, then: touch /etc/reconfigSys 6) reboot Same thing. I searched the websites and could not find a solution. So how can I reconfigure computer "C" hardware and general setup (keyboard, mouse, sound, ...)? Thanks!
