| Hi, I had an installed Mandraked9.1 Linux on one machine and like to moved it to another machine. I checked the messages output and it seems to look into the previous machine's /etc/modules.conf to configure the new mahcine. The result was linux unable to configure the new machine hardwares such as the etho, vedio card etc. What is the required changed in order to use the pre-installed linux to the new hardware system? Thanks for helping in advance - Mike |

Would depend on what hardware is different. You might try doing a rpm -Va | grep '..5' > /tmp/verify to see what files changed during configuration/install. |
