Is the 'Scott' here me ?
I took a quick read. My guess is that this would work fine in most
situtations. However, I think that you would really want 'start on
filesystem' rather than 'local-filesystems'.

see 'man filesystem' for more info. The reasoning is that /var and even
/usr could be on remote filesystems. If var were remote, this would run
before var was mounted, then the mount would go over the top.

All that said, I would suggest asking "the other Scott".
