What disaster?  You mean that over time some things like /home/httpd
moved to /var/www and similar?  I have systems around which went
through a number of subsequent distribution upgrades.  There was
nothing which could not have been worked-around with a symbolic link
or two.  The worst come to worst you have 'mount --bind ...'
although one should be careful with that one.  Anaconda used to have
problems with that but I did not try that kind of a layout with
upgrades in recent times; maybe it is better now.

I always operate on an assumption that my data and configuration
are more valuable than a system stuff which can be always reloaded
from a CD.
