Doug.
Your suggestion of having a small installation on the machine is a
good one, and it probably would work. However, this assumes you
already know what the problem is that needs fixed. Without having
access to the actual boot messages (not just the ones you see while
booting into your sandbox as it were) you'll never be able to solve
any major problems that crop up in regards to the main system.
it is however, not a bad idea, since it would allow some degree of
free usage w/o sighted assistance on simple fixes. it wouldn't
address the main issue though.
And, in any case, it's functionally equivalent to the original
suggestion of using a live cd to boot and work on fixing the issues
from there.
