+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+Remove a directory subtree safely:
+
+ febootstrap-run initramfs -- rm -r /etc
+
+(This requires that you have a compatible 'rm' command in the root).
+
+Another way to do complex operations from a script is to export a
+function:
+
+ #!/bin/bash
+
+ do_stuff ()
+ {
+     # complex operations inside the root
+ }
+ export -f do_stuff
+ febootstrap-run root -- bash -c do_stuff
