I am not sure of the answer to this question, but I have moved a HD
from a beige G3 with MacOS 10.2.6 installed to a B&W G3 400 and it did
boot successfully in the new machine. My further question is whether
one could (should try ) to boot a B&W G3 400 from a firewire drive
which contains a SuperDuper cloned MacOS 10.3.8 system from a G5 iMac
and with accompanying applications and documents? The intent would be
to then clone from the FW drive the contents with OS, applications and
files to the "new" computer, without having to do it application by
application and file by file.
I have hesitated to try this for fear of screwing the B&W G3 400 up,
since it works well now with 10.2.6.
Any suggestions or experiences appreciated.

How is this in OSX? Seems from some of the postings that the Installer
always includes a full version? Meaning that a hard drive can by
physically moved to another machine, and boot happily forever after?
