From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've pulled Linux boot drives out of one machine to stick them in a very different machine (e.g. from a 6th gen Intel i7 with an AMD GPU to an AMD 5950X with an NVIDIA GPU) and they almost always just work or require only minor tweaks. Chances are it will be fine.
