Looks good.  I just looked at SA_ALTROOT and see you can use it not only as a 
prefix, i.e. the name of a directory which contains a directory structure the 
same as the original machine.  But you can also use it as a directory which 
contains the files themselves, without directories.
So both ways you could possibly interpret the text will work.
