hmm, how will you avoid creation of special (devicenodes) files if I have raw access to any partition? I can 'simply' use xxd to create my special inodes on the medium ... and I would not care if mount is enabled or not when I wipe the root partition with dd ...

AFAIK, there are possibilities to deny _RAW_ access to partitions, while in a chroot-jail... If not, I'll tell the grsec-team to implement a new feature. :)

Best regards,
