Well, comes a time when upgrading is the only answer, but I am at a loss as to how to do it!
I picked up a new box with lots of disk space, lots of memory, and a 4 core processor (64 bit)
The old box is just that, OLD ..
New box is 64 bit and SATA only ... where the old box was 32 bit and had both IDE & Sata, but the drive is IDE I want to move 32 bit Ubuntu 16.04 to the new machine and then update to 18.04. (64 bit)
I really could uses a step by step....... do I need to try using a stick (i have a couple of 16gb units)? ...
Or, can I just run a cable?...
Or, can I use my home network?...
Will I need special software?
Not been under the hood in Linux for a LONG time, so, please be kind and treat me like a newbie (lol)
AND THANKS!!
