What I've sometimes done is a fresh install on the new hardware (raid,
different disk controller, etc.), and then kept only the contents of
/boot perhaps /etc/modprobe.conf, overwriting the rest with a copy of a
system from some other machine and adjusting fstab and grub.conf by
hand, but it seems like there should be an easier way to make an initrd
for new hardware.
