Hi all, I’m switching motherboards. No dGPU. Going from an Intel MB to an AMD one. I have my root partition on an nvme and the home one on a 2.5" sata. Do I need to reinstall, or can I just move the drives from the old MB to the new one without a problem? Figured since both Intel and AMD drivers are both baked into the kernel out of the box, wouldn’t it just work and I’ll only need to remove the Intel stuff? I’m running good ole endeavourOS with KDE Plasma if that makes any difference. Any insight is much appreciated

      You can use Timeshift to backup your apps + configuration and restore after install. Honestly it’s what I would do if plug n’ play doesn’t work.

          From what Timeshift tells me, yes. Just restore it on another system; however, I’ve never done it myself. I don’t see how it wouldn’t work though, as long as your not also switching distros.
