Can you install and run FreeBSD on a Iomega Jaz cartridge?

I was thinking that you might want to have a swap partition on
a local disk, but could all the ufs partitions be on the Jaz? 
that way you could load the operating system-de-jour cartridge
[dos, win95, winnt, linux, freebsd, ...]
and let the boot manager on the physical boot disk find it...

thanks,
