You could use user mode linux, that would work It, in relative terms, is a kernel running sub kernels. Not what I had in mind... but hrm.
What I was thinking is using a basic kernel, and having that majority of what you use as modules. Loading a kernel from a CD, Floppy, TFTP, NFS, etc... doesn't mean anything, as long as they're the same from the Installer and the installation. Pivot root, and you're good to go. I've installed X, and KDE in a chroot, it ran fine, I could even load moduals. That is not all that different.
