I need to install debian for a friend of mine that got new machine. Apart for the network card driver (which is actually a relative of mine) and the graphics card which is intel instead of nvidia the install should be about the same.
I thought to save some headache and just copy over the whole linux partition and just fix up the small tidbits (network driver, graphic driver and fstab). Since these are two laptops, moving the hardrive over won't work so I need to do it over the network. What would be the best way to do this? Should I boot the new laptop with ubuntu or something or do a base debian install? Is there a better way, and how do I make sure that the permissions and owners don't change and that /proc, /sys, /dev etc. are not copied?
