254: <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/mount.8">mount(8)</a> option.
1.36 deraadt 255: Because there are still too many ports which violate W^X, the
256: installer mounts the <tt>/usr/local</tt> filesystem with
257: <tt>wxallowed</tt>. This allows the base system to be more
1.37 tb 258: secure as long as <tt>/usr/local</tt> is a separate filesystem.
