I didn't think 'pkg fix' could be run from an alternate boot
environment, but if it can be, then mounting up that environment and
using -R would be the way to do it.

Contacting the folks over on pkg-discuss is probably a better way to go.

File systems not built with the rest of the system are a scary thought,
at least to me.

When communicating with Windows, I use either PCFS or CIFS to do the job
rather than attempting to use the NTFS reader.  I used to use the NTFS
driver, but it's just so fragile.
