My idea was to just take the rescue CD, and install it unmodified in
to /boot. Haven't got around to doing a proof of concept, its low on my
currently somewhat long todo list..

Anaconda may need a patch to make it look for stage2 on /boot for this
to work cleanly.

How hard is it to just build the rescue CD image by itself so it can be
packaged?
