I have a new box and want to transfer all the data to so it appears just like 
the current box.  Would the steps just be to do the NetInstall, yum update it 
to make them match, and then copy over /opt/ and /etc/?  Or would cloning the 
drive work?  I know with Microsoft Windows, booting a hard drive on new 
hardware usually is a terrible mess.  I haven't tried it with CentOS.

If someone has done this and has some pointers, I'd appreciate anything you 
can share.


Thanks,
Joseph B.
