[K12OSN] Restore k12ltsp server backup to another computer

Hello All,

We had a great experience with k12ltsp so far. We used it to setup a lab for
remote connection to our symix server. 20 dummy machine connect to the
server which is in turn hooked up to our windows NT network and Symix
server. So, dummy machines telnet via terminal sessions to the server.
We have a situation right now as we plan to move/upgrade our server. We have
prepared a faster machine and would like to move all the stuff in our old
server to this one. We had made a lot of changes on our existing server that
now it is really difficult to reproduce all changes on the default k12ltsp
install. We are using fedora k12ltsp - 4.2.1 version.
We have a ghost backup of already running server and we tried to restore it
on the new computer. IT BOOTED UP but asked for certain configuration
changes, Because it is a new machine and it does not have the same ethernet
cards, integrated video; it asked for removing the configuration or keeping
it. No matter if we remove or keep the configuration, it comes out of boot
cycle and puts us to command line stating trying to swap.
We would really appreciate if somebody can help us with this transition. How
can we restore our live server to this new machine.
Look forward to responses.
Thanks!

Regards,
