boot_required is simply deduced by interrogating fstab, to find mount points which are 'required' to boot, (ie have a pass value not 0). The script logs anything (and all) of the strings which it thinks might enable it to identify at boot time, a device which might be subsequently required.

I'd be surprised if passenger would allow itself to run as root. Anecdotal evidence suggests it isn't as on my setup, before I added the PassengerDefaultUser record to passenger.conf my setup was complaining that it didn't have write access to /etc/redmine/default/session.yml, which was owned by
