The only time I could think there would be a point to /etc not being on / is if it was mounted *read only* over NFS and shared on a large group of machines or some thing to that effect.


In which case I would guess people would want to eventually read the diskless operation parts of the handbook.


Or just rsync /etc via ssh ontop of a minimal /etc.
