gollark: Is *this* workable, then? On first boot, it'll delay boot until you decide to turn EZcopy™ off or not.
gollark: Nobody knows.
gollark: Okay then, I've added a setting (hopefully, I haven't... really done much testing...) which should allow you to disable PotatOS EZcopy/disk infection (`set potatOS.disable_ezcopy` out of sandbox, `est potatOS.disable_ezcopy` in sandbox). This is rolling out to potatOS computers on Switchcraft, and I'm planning to eventually mention this to users on first boot or something.
gollark: Generally ext4 is good.
gollark: The symlink thing? I think so. You will need to automount the disk, probably.
