The short answer is yes. Linux has no "magic hidden configurations" like
Windows that will prevent your system from booting if it is directly
copied.
However, you should probably BOOT off a floppy the first time after
swapping your drives, so that LILO will not have to boot the system. LILO
is a little squirrelly when the drive geometry mysteriously changes, so
you should re-run lilo on the new system after booting off floppy.
