This is not 100% correct, I think. Some delivered systems must be to some
extent machine specific as we had great problems with a G5, upon which we
installed a standard Panther (it came with Jaguar). After certain
problems, we received G5 Panther System disks, reinstalled and our
problems went away.

So then, A Panther System from a G4 box, wouldn't work fully just by
copying it to a G5 system, even as Panther in later incarnations
(updates) may support the G5 systems fully.

This was also common, with earlier G4 machines. But, in general you do
have a point that systems *may* be transferable. I'd never do it like
that though, as making a specific installation really doesn't take that
much time.
