you can actively mount one after another of these alt_disk images just using alt_disks_install -W hdisk* - they will be mounted under slightly different names like /alt_var or /old_var but you have afterwards access like for any other filesystem ...
Additionally /dev should be capable to tell you when the /alt_* had been created as this was most likely happening under your currently loaded OS version - it won't show you anything for the old_ since this images was a previous image you did not boot from - most likely for backout purposes ...
Kind regards
