I moved my HDD from a PIV 2.0GHz machine(given away) to a new AMD64
Athlon X2 5600 based box, and all I had to do was take care of the MBR
and edit menu.lst

Did something similar, by just moving my boot drive to a new system.
Since I roll my own kernel and use lilo, though, things were a bit
different:

Before the move, I rebuilt the kernel, adding built-in support for
the chipset, and modular networking and sound.
