12 Solar -
13 I am very hesitant about adding this flag for default use. I can see it
14 opening a whole lotta bugs when users try a chroot, fsck something up,
15 and come running to us for help. We can recommend it, but I really don't
16 think that it would be such a good idea to enable it by default.
