All,
We'll be replacing a 960 with a new 3070 soon and am wondering if anyone's gone through this upgrade path yet.
Our current plan is to install 7.2.2 for the 3070 (which is an x86_64 based OS) with the 960 still up, run "download" to put the boot stuff on the disks, then edit the /etc/rc file to change the device names for the network interface, then shutdown and swap the heads. Hopefully the 3070 will just come up and hum right along.
Any gotchyas?
