It is a running gentoo system in this case

But it doesnt make a difference to me. I want to know generally.


anyway I will try what everyone wrote here and we'll see how it goes.

Thanks again.

Could you be more specific about the destination machine? Is it already<br>
running some Linux distro, or is it a new machine with no OS? If it&#39;s<br>
the latter, you&#39;ll have to be more careful with the boot procedure,<br>
kernel options, etc.<br>
