| Also if we did this and used a different CPU and memory would we have
any issues from reconfiguring the kernel on a firewall box.

| Use RAID hardware to address disk failure, and identical redundant
hardware for the CPU and memory.
Don't use a different CPu and memory, or yes, you'll have to do a
kernel rebuild ...

| But will the firewall work on a non-identical system with a
reconstructed kernel. The reason being that until I have a solution
where I can suggest to the customer either a parallel firewall setup
or a clustered firewall setup I have the possibility of suggesting
the use of a non-identical box which can be used as an identical
twin, but non-active, to another system.
This could be seen as acceptable risk management to the customer
where I have two highly reliable boxes with one box in cold standby
for either one.

p.s. the other box would more than likely have to support a WNT
partition on it's other drive and thus my concerns.
