Are there any software issues I may/should deal with when doing a full system upgrade? I’m going from AM4 to AM5, so new CPU, motherboard and RAM.
It should be pretty straightforward under Linux, right? Just swap my drives over and boot up? I’ve only ever done single upgrades at a time, never a full generation.
Pretty much… as long as you didn’t do any custom kernel stuff or driver blacklisting or any other underhood voodoo with the boot system.
I moved my SSD from my old 8th gen Intel laptop to my brand new Zen 4 Framework 16. It was absolutely uneventful. Almost disappointing 😅
I recently did an Intel to AMD switch and still using the same installation with same SSD. I just needed to reconfigure my network name because motherboard is changed though.
If you have a default kernel it should be fine (If you don’t know and you haven’t installed nvidia drivers you do). I’ve even moved around between amd and intel without issues.
No, unless you did stuff that would lead to you not asking this question.
