It also probes for the correct hardware at boot. I see what the new motherboard uses during the rescue boot, mount my root partition, change the variables in /etc/sysconfig/kernel for mkinitrd to the correct ones for the new motherboard. Then run mkinitrd and good to go. The performance hit during boot IMHO would be too great to do this every boot.
