The boot archive might need updating if the controller's sufficiently different between the 2 boards, wouldn't it?

I'd have an appropriate version of the live CD handy :-)

Thanks for the tip. I always have a live CD lying around. As I wrote, I
bought the board as a similar one as the board that broke. The technical
data "seems the same"; same chipset etc.
-IF- that is true then there shouldn't be a problem after I moved my
cards, memory, and other stuff over to the new board. That's how I
understand it up 'till now. How do I update the bootarchive BTW?

On the current image:

/sbin/bootadm update-archive

on a disk that's mounted somewhere else (/mnt in this example):

/sbin/bootadm update-archive -R /mnt
