..playing with findmnt --fstab # --mtab # --kernel and a wee
bit of RTFM, leads me to belive that using the same kernels
that both we and Debian use, with the same fs, servers etc
setup, _should_ yield the same "findmnt --kernel " output,
until the systemd fanbois mess things up more, soooooooooo,
we probably should keep an eye on this datapoint.
