Now it looks o.k. for me during recovery of SLES12-SP2:

RESCUE e205:~ # type -a cmp
cmp is /bin/cmp

RESCUE e205:~ # rear -d -D recover
...
Will do driver migration (recreating initramfs/initrd)
...
Running mkinitrd...
Recreated initrd (/sbin/mkinitrd).
Installing GRUB2 boot loader
Finished recovering your system. You can explore it under '/mnt/local'.
