If there's such a program (sysconf - nice name :) then it's easily
possible to do the configuration before the first reboot. As we don't have
this program yet and I doubt it will pop up soon, other measures have to
be taken. I.e. manual configuration for now. And for that, having the
system in a known state is necessary, which again we only have after the
first reboot when root's == /. 

Anyways, IMHO doing this reboot shouldn't hurt too much - or am I missing
something? (I know of some other OS that boots ~3 times during it's
installation until it's done)
