    Hi all,

    a simple question I think. I'm going to upgrade my old P2 233 Intel
    motherboard with a 'slightly' newer P3 733 motherboard. As I'm sticking
    with a Pentium processor, I think I don't need to do anything like
    switch the kernel as it'll still be the same one. All that I will
    probably need to do is sort out any onboard stuff like graphics, sound, etc.

    Does this sound correct, or is there something that I've forgotten about?

    Bruce
