>Description:
There was a post about this issue on the -doc mailing list but it wasn't
taken serious enough, and was kinda ignored.  I am officialy sending
a Problem Report regarding that issue.  This bug was originally pointed
out by "Ronald Klop" <ronald@klop.yi.org>.

In section '17.5 Diskless Operation' in the FreeBSD Handbook,
is the sample script '/usr/local/share/examples/clone_root' mentioned.

The above path is wrong, and should point to the path below, which is
correct, as I have checked it on my system after the post on the -doc
mailing list:

This should be: /usr/share/examples/diskless/clone_root.

I am posting a patch with this PR.

thanks,

>How-To-Repeat:
Visit the FreeBSD Handbook, under the Advanced Networking section (17.5),
it points out a path (/usr/local/share/examples/clone_root) which is
wrong, if you try to find it on your local FreeBSD system.
