Fair enough but I also think that the notion of "recreate the install *exactly* as it was created by me" has a lot going for it too! :) So this should include the bits where I set up lilo, for example, to boot another OS... and of course if an autoinstall will always erase another OS then thats a bit pointless. Almost Redmondish in fact! How about an option on the autoinstall creation for these two simple cases: autoinstall just as it was installed in the first place or autoinstall regardless of the current contents?
