Hello, for migration to a new machine (i686>x86_64, msdos>gpt,ssd,diff disk layout) I decided to do a clean install, Now I have * basic Arch up and running: pacman -S base base-devel * I'll do pacman -Qe > installed.txt (on the old one), pacman -S $((cat installed.txt)) (on new) * cp -a /home For other directories: /boot - nothing, /var - I dont care about old logs, is there anything else important? /etc ... some files (related to hw) changed, but many (wifi, iptables, cron, security, ...) stay ...is it possible to copy/merge them in a smart way? Or I have to go through all the configuration? I read this one: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Migrate_installation_to_new_hardware and basically I'd like to elaborate on how to merge the configs in /etc (or else?) Thank you, Mark -- Marek Otahal :o)
