Or maybe you meant 'port' instead of 'os' ? In which case this is true, but it's because of differences in the on-disk disklabel format (dependant on firmware). If your media doesn't have a disklabel no problems (I to this between my i386 and sparc, NetBSD supports byte-swapped FFS). If your media is partitioned then you have to put an in-core disklabel matching its partitioning before mouting it. -- Manuel Bouyer, LIP6, Universite Paris VI.
