I like that, although it's a bit of an intelligence insulter.  Reminds
me of the old pdp11 install (
http://charles.the-haleys.org/papers/setting_up_unix_V7.pdf ) --

This step makes an empty file system.
6.    The next thing to do is to restore the data onto the new empty
file system. To do this you respond
      to the ':' printed in the last step with
                (bring in the program restor)
                : tm(0,4)          ('ht(0,4)' for TU16/TE16)
                tape? tm(0,5)      (use 'ht(0,5)' for TU16/TE16)
                disk? rp(0,0)                (use 'hp(0,0)' for RP04/5/6)
                Last chance before scribbling on disk. (you type return)
                (the tape moves, perhaps 5-10 minutes pass)
                end of tape
                Boot
                :
      You now have a UNIX root file system.
