Then manually configure the important files in /etc/sysconfig that match the settings on the remote. the next few steps are very dangerous because if your screw up your system either may not boot, or may not communicate. If you have space on the remote system, copy the reference system over to the remote, probably as an iso, and subsequently mount the iso. Once you have the reference system over to the remote, then you can replace the important directories such as /boot, /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, usr/sbin, /lib, /usr/lib, (and don't forget the 64-bit stuff such as /usr/lib64). If you build your reference system minimally the resultant .iso file should be manageable. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@xxxxxxx> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
