it should be fine. my understanding is that the database will operate 
(in that regard) largely independent of the underlying operating system.

depends largely on the hardware, obviously totally different arch's will
be impossible. however within the intel range you should have good 
success - depending on how your kernel has been compiled. a generic
kernel shouldnt have any drama's. just need to use a different network
device most likely.
