Hardware upgrade advice needed

[Thomas E. Dukes]

Hello,

I would like to move my current system to a new PC.  I'm not sure the best
way to do this.

What I was thinking was to move the harddrive to the new computer and let
fedora recognize and update the new hardware.  Will this work?  The 'newer'
PC is an IBM NetVista 6792-3MU.

Assuming the above will work, I then like to add an additional harddrive and
move /home and /var to the new drive.  Can I just format and partition the
new drive and move the files from the old drive to the new drive?

Then, I would also like to increase the swap space on the old drive to
double the RAM.  Can the swap be resized?

Thanks
