I just tried doing this, and ran into an interesting problem. I think that it had to do with copying /lib over, but when it finished untarring the new system, it just gave me a login prompt. I logged in, got the message of the day, told me I had no mail, and then gave me the login prompt. when I tried to reboot with ctrl-alt-delete it asked for the administrator password for maintenance, which didn't seem to work. Basically I needed to hit the reset switch, and then install the system from scratch. So be careful.
