I want to migrate my existing Pogoplug ARM installation to a standard Arch Linux distribution in a VM on an AMD 64 desktop. I know that one way to do this would be to install a new Arch Linux distribution on the VM machine, then move over the applications manually. I would like to know if there's a way to move the disk image of the Arm installation to the new server and reinstall only the things that are different.
I realize that this may be a bridge too far, but I'd like to get opinions on the most efficient way to do this.
