Question updating platform and socket.. Can i use the same hdd system??

Zitat von ryuks

Good day,

I have omv installed and working perfectly (omv 4.1.9) but I want to change the platform (from socket 1155 to 1150), so I would change the mainboard and processor. I know it's not the cleanest way but I'm very lazy to reconfigure everything. If I change "on the fly" mainboard and cpu and leave omv hdd, would it work?

I mean, is it necessary to do a fresh install of omv or can i reuse my omd hdd instalattion in order to save time with all configs??

If not, could i do a backup of something similar to save time in my new setup??

Thanks in advance.

It should... Linux generally handles hardware upgrades (even at the motherboard CPU level) much better than Windows.

I would update. Current version is 4.1.26

After you exchanged the motherboard you probably have to run omv-firstaid from CLI an configure the network interface.
