1 Sorry if this is the wrong list for this question.

3 If I build a system, optimized for the architecture without room for
4 backwards compatibility, containing all the software I want, what's an easy
5 way to "clone" that build onto another machine with a different
6 architecture?
7
8 For instance, how can one move the definition of the "world" class to the
9 new machine (bootstrapped) and then emerge all that software at once? Is
10 there a better approach?
11
12 (Sounds like Tal Peer's GLEP 21 proposal might just solve this, but how
13 could it be done now?)
14
15 Thanks,
