Can you provide source for that bit of information?

The ONLY way to migrate between different OS's is via export/import or Transportable Tablespaces/Data Pump in 10g. You cannot just copy a datafile e.g. from Windows to Unix because of incompatable file structures between different OS's.

Goto http://metalink.oracle.com and read 113178.1
