I've been using sysinstall at dozens of customer sites since the 1990's without 
ever once running into a problem resembling what you've described.  Considering 
the absence of specific details, I think you're exaggerating well past the 
point of credibility.

Anyway, if someone does something bad using sysinstall and needs to fix it, 
restoring from backups should be all that is needed.  When people talk about 
doing a complete reinstall, it implies to me that they don't have backups in 
the first place.
