Yes, moving OS disks between an A and a B model and/or between a 16700
and a 16702 model has been known to cause weird behavior. If you need
to do that it might be easiest to just do a fresh install instead of
trying to manually sort things out by hand after a disk transplant. It
takes an hour or so to for a fresh install to complete but it is
completely automated. Just boot from the CD and let it run to
completion.
I need to back up the disk. It has some licenses for
some optional
features, such as the B4601B Serial Analysis Tool Set, which is part
of the reason I use the 16702A instead of the 16700B.
You must not be aware of the "introScreen" lmcrypt hack. You can
regenerate a license.dat file with correct passwords for all of the
tool sets available on the software installation CD.
