Change motheroard and CPU in FC17

edit

HI,

I`m planning on changing my CPU on my server back home. And that means it has to bring its own motherboard. Small upgrade from Pentium 4 HT to Intel Core 2 Duo. Now, i got a domain set up, a couple of web sites, utorrent server, scripts that output through parallel port (parashell), 4 HDDs in LVM, who knows what else i missed. Basically i have to bring all my HDDs from an Optiplex 620 to 745.

The big question is: what could go wrong? i`ve read that the kernel can "plug and play" a new CPU ....?!?! is a simpler (more secure) solution trying to install a new version of Fedora on the new server and start transferring settings from the old to the new system?

Later edit: ah .. i think video card will be a problem and XBMC huh?
