The risk there is that the system just identified itself as potentially unstable. Prior to zfs root we were very careful to perform this check before any fs is mounted rw, in order to avoid the possibility of corrupting data if the system were to run into issues with incompatible modules. If you all don't see a problem with this, I'm happy to implement the automated re-build during boot, it's not like it's much code. -jan
