Hardware update requires reinstall?
« on: April 27, 2001, 02:48:12 AM »
Hi,

I'm thinking of an upgrade of my e-smith server's motherboard from my good old via based soyo P133 board to an Intel 430TX based board because of problems with more than two simms installed on that soyo board.
But....do I need a full reinstall of e-smith? I'm yet using e-smith 4.1 but want to upgrade to 4.1.1 Does this upgrade also upgrade the "drivers" for my new hardware? If yes, I don't need to reinstall e-smith full, but only build in the new motherboard and upgrade e-smith to version 4.1.1 and all working fine.

Anyone?
