WARNING: cryptfs file name limits
=================================
Do not run the build system on a cryptfs file system, because it has
very short file name limits and Libreboot's build system deals with very
long file names. We commonly get reports from this by Linux Mint users
who encrypt their home directory with cryptfs; use a serious distro like
Debian or Arch please. And use a decent file system; zfs or perhaps mdcrypt
with btrfs will do nicely.
