What I'm not clear on is what functionality is provided by each of the two
initscripts individually. I was thinking the ocfs2 initscript did the mounting
of ocfs2 file systems, but I'm not quite clear what the o2cb one does. Hrm, I
suppose there's probably some documentation on it somewhere in the tarball,
eh?... But if you could quickly explain what each does individually and why both
need to be on for all installs, I'd appreciate it and I'll probably just say
"oh, ok, approved." :)
