I've been reading some of your recent comments, Anonymous looser, and
I've really got to say this - you seem to make some authoritative style
comments on things you really dont know much about. eg. in this case -
the filesystem could be mounted readonly since its only exposed readonly
from the underlying i/o or block subsystem.
