Unless you really reduced the drivers available on your system or you're going |
10 |
to a lesser system (64 -> 32bit, or something like that), I would expect the |
11 |
system to simply boot. |

If not, you only need a live-cd/usb/... and rebuild the kernel and any drivers |
13 |
your new system needs. |

It's not MS Windows that might try to load incompatible drivers and ends up |
16 |
with a blue-screen. |

Personally, however, I tend to use a new system as an excuse to clean up my |
19 |
install and start from scratch. Especially as I always tend to pass my old |
20 |
system on to a family member or friend. |
