    Trouble is, I did an install - once. Like 8 years ago. Never been a need to do an install since.

    I think even through major hardware upgrades I just moved or rsync’d the filesystems and adjusted fstab as necessary.

    Has the procedure changed? Not that I remember it anyway.

    tar xzf base-install-thingy.tar.gz to / and edit mirrorlist? Then just the generic Linux things like edit fstab, add a user with sudo privs, grub install. Nah, I’d have to at least read --help docs of these various tools.
