OK, but we do need that to be more than just an 'are you sure?' dialog -
as it needs to also work for automatic boot.

So, how about this:

 - add a NVRAM-based setting to disable pre-boot checks
   "petitboot,disable-boot-checks"

 - add a facility to the config UI screen to set the above (but have it 
   default to checks enabled)

 - have the pre-boot verification stop the boot, but disabled through
   that setting.

How does that sound?

Cheers,


Jeremy
