I wonder, if you want to reinstall all packages anyway after a partial
recovery after a system crash, why not just reinstall so that you can
be sure that you don't miss anything?  By the time you reinstal _all_
packages, you will have also reinstalled those packages in basedebs.tgz.

What caused the crash in the first place?
