Sounds like a good idea, i am myself planing to implement a function which
would allow to regenerate the system automatically (basically redo the initrd
build, or upgrade from a 2.4 to a 2.6 kernel using yaird, or for newer
hardware, or some stuff involving strange root filesystem situations like evms
migration and such).
