Yes, well, as soon as I've squashed these hideous hardware problems (by
replacing the whole motherboard on my most important machine) that'll be
underway again.

I'd not really recommend recanting /etc without a lot of thought,
because you'll need to get PostgreSQL up before you can mount anything;
I guess you could do it by having a skeleton /etc, just enough to get
postgres running, and then mount --move it somewhere else and overmount
the real /etc. Hm. That's an idea... ;)
