-live\-boot will probe filesystems for persistent media. These can either be
-the filesystems themselves, if labeled correctly, or image/archive files, if
-named correctly. Overlays are labeled/named either "live\-rw" or "home\-rw"
-and will be mounted on / or /home, respectively; snapshots are labeled/named
-either "live\-sn" or "home\-sn" and will be extracted into / or /home,
-respectively (see live\-snapshot(1) for more information). Overlays are
-mounted before snapshots are extracted, and for both overlays and snapshots,
-"live\-*" are handled before "home\-*". Overlay image files and snapshot
-archive files have extensions which determines their filesystem or archive
-type, e.g. "live\-rw.ext3" and "\home\-sn.squashfs".
