That's a good idea. I've done that on some of my systems
including one Gentoo. I haven't done it on others because
of the cabability of the LiveCD.

Would that mean to start from a different Linux, e.g.
from the
LiveCD? (Because it's the root file system; when
unmounted, no more
programs)
Yes, it would. You would need the LiveCD or another
partition that can be
booted.
On some machines I have installed a very minimal Linux
system on the
boot partition. Normally, this partition won't be
mounted, but I have a
menu choice in grub which starts this rescue partition.
