Installation boot loader onto partitionable software mirror is regular
common task, not hacking. But in opposite this shifting first partition to
32 kB from MBR is something exclusive that nobody doing in common case.
Thus such essential info lack of which prevent completing main task of
using boot loader should be placed into man. This is good style of Debian
that differ it form other distros.
