Re: [gentoo-user] Install Gentoo on one machine, then move the drive to another

[Geistteufel <geistteufel@yahoo.fr>]

Well, I do this often time

You can compile on one computer and put the drive to another without any  
problem
If your both computer have the same material ... nothing to do

Well CFGLAS on P4 should be like -02 -march=p4 -pipe -fmoit-frame-pointer
so both are P4, you can switch easyly

if both haven't got same material and you don't use genkernel you should  
probably redo the kernel
if you hd are not at the same place on new computer you need to change  
fstab

but globally, they don't take more than half an hour

good luck
