G4 to G5 system disk transplant

Can one just clone the Tiger boot disk of a G4 to a G5?

I'm reluctant about getting an Intel Mac because I don't what to track down and reinstall every app in the system.
 
It'd be a better idea to format the target drive and just transfer the stuff over using Firewire Target Mode, the clone won't have G5 drivers on.
 
Could one clone the disk and then install the system from DVD over it without reformatting?
