Security is irrelevant to an unmounted filesystem. =P Furthermore, I'm attracted to the idea of just using the damn thing as my boot partition, it strikes me as a nice and tidy solution... If I had several distros, I would have to have a /lib/modules partition and try to share the same kernel and boot parameters among all distros... -- Strange Game. The only winning move is not to play. Powers are not rights.
