Important Notes

Whatever you do, stay away from this file. Messing with its contents will bring nothing but trouble. If you are feeling adventurous and tell SpringBoard to run as "root" instead of "mobile", your device will turn on, but you will be unable to open any apps. They will open their "loading.png" then immediately crash, probably because the sandbox doesn't want to run as root.
