Possible I suppose but it seems to be a catch all for non-raid and 
non-loop devices.
If the option is not supported by all distros, any suggestion on where I 
might add it in the config to have it picked up for my machines that 
need it?
Only 1 model out of the 4 or so I have need this option.

Cheers,
