Linux SageTV server died-moving ok?
Last night the motherboard on my linux-based SageTV host pooched.
I am planning to go out today and get something new. Assuming I move the hard drives over, will SageTV start okay, or will I have licensing issues? Will I have to "move" the license? |

I think the Linux SageTV license is ties to the MAC address of the network card/interface.
So yes, you could have issues.

Success! I was able to get my machine up briefly, so I queried the MAC address and set it up to permanently apply that MAC to the primary ethernet device. After shutting it down I moved the HDs to my new hardware and when it came up SageTV started just fine
