In http:\/\/blogs.pfuetzner.de\/matthias\/?p=495<\/a> I wrote, that I bought a new motherboard. It did arrive on Friday, and as I still don’t have a new case (I ordered the Chenbro ES34069<\/a> today, sadly, in Europe, it’s only available with PSU, waste of money, but I’m willing to spend it for the size and features of the case), I simply put it into the old case, and left the case open. I also did not yet connect the external USB disks via SATA, will be done, when the new case arrives.<\/p>\n

So, did my feelings mislead me? No! I simply unplugged the boot disk from the old board, removed an additional IDE converter (the new board has the smaller, but power-including IDE cable setup, so no need for additional power cables to the boot disk!), plugged the disk into the board, connected the power-switch and external PSU to the board, pressed the power button, quickly checked the BIOS setting (no need to change anything, default values were good, but I will later turn on the “shutdown on overheating” option), pressed “e” when grub came up, and added a “-r” to the boot-line, and pressed “b”. First step, I didn’t have the USB disks connected, but I could have done so, things went straight forward, and the system came up. On the second reboot I added the USB disks, and again, all went well. The ONLY two small changes, I needed to do, were:<\/p>\n

\r\nmv \/etc\/hostname.rge0 \/etc\/hostname.rge1\r\nvi \/etc\/power.conf\r\n<\/pre>\n
Reason for that?<\/p>\n
The new board has a slightly different RealTek network adapter, so it could not re-use the old settings, and did create a new device, namely rge1. And, for sure, the hardware paths to the boot disk and the USB disks are slightly different, so I needed to adopt the values in the \/etc\/power.conf file to the new values.<\/p>\n
That’s been it! And, although the board has a CPU fan, that fan is so quiet, I don’t really hear it, although the current case is open. I can highly recommend that board!<\/p>\n
Stay tuned for the next update somewhen this week, when the new case will arrive!<\/p>\n
