Yeah, no problem whatsoever, even for multi-device filesystems.
Btrfs doesn't care about what devices it is on.

There has been no new incompat features in quite a while, so old kernels
shouldn't be an issue either.

I think the only way for valid btrfs to be unmountable on another machine
with a modern kernel is to mess with page size, which is AFAIK not even
possible on x86.


Meow!
