Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-9390:
---------------------------------------

Perhaps we ought to close this as Won't Fix instead of doing anything to 
encourage running the tests as root.  I'm curious to get feedback from others.

> There is at least one test, {{TestDiskChecker}}, that fails when running as
