Lynx? The web browser? Just install it on the other computer. Same with any app.

There is no seawizard. There is seatools and there is disk wizard. You want disk wizard.

You can't clone a drive and stick into another machine and expect it to boot. Won't happen. Besides, you'd then have the same registered OS (assuming a proprietary OS like Windows) on two machines, which also will not work.

As I said, I'd just install Lynx on the other machine.
