Hi All,

    I am using White Box Enterprise Linux V4 rc1. (Same
as Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, only cheaper. Based on
Fedora Core 3.) I am running Dual PIII's.

    What happens when I upgrade my mother board from a
Via 266T chipset to an Intel 955 chipset (the upcoming
Pentium D chipset)? Is the change automatic, or do I
have to reinstall anything? Is the change easy or messy?

Many thanks,
--Tony
