I have found some interes= ting articles (http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2006/04/13/freebsd-build-sys= tem.html - http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/small-= lan.html)=2C but nothing which actually addresses my needs.

Can anyone kindly confirm that it's a supported procedure to compile FreeBS= D for a Tier1 architecture by using another Tier1-architecture machine? May= be I didn't understood documentation or I'm missing some essential steps in= the build process?
