annoyance" barrier and most people will remove it upon install, thus
negating the reason it was created in the first place.

That's kind of a silly exercise in what-ifs. The default anaconda
partition scheme is /boot, , and /. If someone wanted to fill up
the disk, they can just write to /tmp on a default install.

- almost to the point of where it sounds like a fair
trade-off. If someone has physical access to the machine, then heck --
it's not like they don't already effectively "own" it.
Not saying it's a good default policy -- but let's cool our heads.

re posting it on the *inside* of your door. :)
If someone has shell access, they can always run "foo --version", so I
don't think this introduces any security risks that aren't already
posed by someone having a shell on your server.

I don't know where fdisk, the Linux kernel, or whatever come up with
these kinds of geometries. They're almost universally non-bootable.
