Subject:   Still safe to do a remote 'installworld'?

Am I still safe to do the equivalent of a 'remote' install world? - I have 2 x
3.0 boxes, one which is fresh 3.0-RELEASE, the other which is 3.0-CURRENT...
If I take the /usr/src & /usr/obj directories from sucsessful 'buildworld' on
the -current machine can I run an 'installworld' on the -release machine?

Or is it highly likely to stuff up because of all the recent elven changes
etc? - Unfortunately the -release box isn't meaty enough to build the world...

I gave up after around 16 hours a time and a few failures (which have been
posted here, and subsequently fixed) - I'd kinda not like to have to wait
another 16 hours to find any more problems ;-) - especially when the faster
box can munch through it in around an hour flat... :)

Regards,

Karl
