Hi all,

afterboot(8) mentions /altroot, which is a nice feature.

But you only learn about /altroot when you read afterboot(8).
By that time, you already have a system installed, in particular
your disk is already partitioned, and typically you don't have
the spare partition (of size at least that of /) to use for
/altroot.

So my suggestion is: /altroot should be mentioned in the
install faq, probably in the 'setting up disks' paragraph:

        Thanks
