"Physical security is not our problem"... (at least yet). If an XS
deployment can do really custom hw, then we can help them use a scheme
similar to what we have on the XO to only boot signed images, to
controlled runlevels, etc.

But that's unlikely to happen in the near future (AFAIK), so any
deployment that wants safety for their XSs will want to consider
physical security a must.

cheers,
