Description
I suggest to say some words about the end result somewhere in the beginning of the book. E.g.: Warn the readers that the thing they will build is not a complete system (i.e. they have to go beyond the book and probably download another gigabyte of sources). Document the class of systems where no deviation from the book is necessary (only dos-style partitions on an IDE hard drive, no RAID; no devices with binary-only kernel modules; only Latin-based input and output; only ext2 or ext3 filesystems) and declare the rest as unsupported.

Section 9.3 (Rebooting) describes the situation pretty well, IMO. Closing.
Good idea - this should DEFINATELY go into 5.1
