How much is likely to break if you keep a locally installed /boot
partition with it's anaconda-crafted module set in the initrd, but wipe
and completely replace / and any other partitions with a copy from a
machine that has somewhat different hardware? Assume both machines are
running the same kernel versions and the change is done while running
from the rescue CD or other livecd boot.
If you have similar boot controller, it could work. But if boot controller
changes, and needs a different driver, it won't boot. You will get a panic
when it can't find the root.
