This is unfortunately not true.  There is currently no way to disable 
the watchdog via the hostmot2 driver, so it's always on and biting 
people who dont pet it.  Sorry!

Compounding this problem, in the sample hostmot2 config distributed with 
2.2.8 the watchdog stuff is commented out, which means it always bites 
right away.  I dont understand how this ever works for you.  Maybe i'm 
missing something here.

The easiest fix might be to upgrade to 2.3.0 beta2, which has a hostmot2 
7i43 config that doesnt bite people.

If you want to stay with 2.2.8, uncomment (remove the "#" at the 
beginning) the line of m7i43_th.hal that says this:

#addf hm2_7i43.0.pet_watchdog  servo-thread #enable if fw supported
