Which IMHO misses the point to some extent. It's true that changes
are written out _during_ _installation_, and put in the wrong place. But
then the poor user thinks that this will happen automagically each time
he/she boots -c, which is simply not true. So, the errata should be
corrected - it's not plainly wrong, but violates POLA.
