Interesting.  I knew about 'init q' to reread /etc/inittab, but not
about the u option.

As a note, I will say that I have done a tar of a complete (minimal) LFS
system and then an untar to an empty partition on another system with
identical hardware.  I then changed a config file (IP Address) and the
system booted perfectly.  That's not the same as updating a live system,
but it is similar.
