[Centos] swap out mainboard

[corey_s at qwest.net (Corey)]

Hello!

How robust is linux when it comes to changing the motherboard on an existing 
( installed ) box?  We need to up the ram on our server, but the current 
mainboard won't accommodate the necessary upgrade, so we are close to just 
changing it out with another similar board that can.

Will any changes in the hardware of the mainboard ( chipset, pci ids, i/o, 
etc, etc ) to a system which has been up and running cause any sort of 
difficult or random problems when the box comes back up with a new board?

Any thing we need to be aware of w/ CentOS in particular?


Thanks!
