I haven't tested it yet but LEAF runs from memory so I think you can actually rewrite the entire boot flash while it is running. Just make sure it is not mounted at the time. lrcfg mounts the flash while writing to the packages and in older versions used to leave it mounted at times from what I recall.
I run LEAF for several clients all on WRAP PC hardware with 2GB compact flash. This allows me to build the config and verify it before writing to flash. I see no reason you couldn't push this to a live system and reboot into the new flash.
