I've hit a thousand other ways to corrupt my rootfs, I don't think it's worth documenting them. It's arguable this whole item is needed to be documented, but if you feel compelled to write Red Hat specific documentation in the swsusp docs, feel free to note that 'make modules_install ; make install' just does the right thing, including building an initrd for you with all the right pieces.
