I agree with some of the voices raised here. I just edited fstab,
screwing up the device name of an unimportant data partition, and now
I'm left with a non-booting server and no clear indication of what went
wrong (well, until I found this).

I think perhaps other than the root partition, a flag like
'forcebootwait' should trigger this behaviour, and the default should be
as 'nobootwait' is now.

This isn't a horrific bug (no data loss, a quick visit to the console
will fix) - but it's a nasty one in areas where everyone is a little
jumpy (booting, storage).

Keep up the otherwise good work.
