What I've sometimes done is a fresh install on the new hardware (raid,

hand, but it seems like there should be an easier way to make an initrd
for new hardware.
mkinitrd
That's not what I meant. Without actually installing on new hardware,
how do you know what modules it will need to boot - or even what things
like the software raid modules are named? Is there something you could
run from a bootable CD that would do the mkinitrd based on what the
machine and new root location needs?
