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. ------------- Marked as reviewed by kevinw (Committer). PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/10518
