I’d guess many distros would’ve had errors with preinstalled and configured helpers. Debugging them would be a pain
Gentoo, LFS, Arch etc. are installed manually, so one typically knows their system very well, including packages and configs they might have to hard configure interfaces etc. in
I just noticed I did not fully expand the fs on the target machine after shrinking it on the source machine to be sure it fits. No problem, growing ext4 file systems with resize2fs (indirect dependency of linux and base) works on mounted fs’ too, the Kernel just needs to be newer than 2.6 (so since 2003).
Took less than 1 second and works flawlessly, live. Conkys fs_free just jumped from 20 to 76. Still time to clear my caches.
More like do that in Windows with any tools. It doesn’t like being moved to different hardware one bit.
The only problems with my Arch install were
Btw detected
