Quoting Christopher Svanefalk <christopher.svanefalk@xxxxxxxxx>:
I will be moving from an AMD FX-8120 to an Intel i7 3930K, which of course
means I will be changing my motherboard as well. All other relevant system
components will stay the same (including the HDD and any data on it).
I just wondered if Fedora can accomodate the new hardware directly, or if
there are any procedures I should go through after booting again? Could a
reinstall be needed? I am guessing I will not have a problem booting, since
Grub is installed on the MBR of the drive, and I believe the new MB will
search this first for a bootloader.
Thanks in advance for all help!
you HAVE got a current full backup haven't you? and if you do I'd say
have a go at it, Fedora has been very resilient for me.

true...life among bumblebees must bear a remarkable resemblance to
life in the United States.
