Logging into a system with the MOTD script causes the login to hang when a portion storage is unreachable for doing the calculations for the disk space on root. The system becomes inaccessible at that point via normal shell.

Recommend swapping the USAGEROOT variable with this line to automatically timeout

USAGEROOT=timeout -k 5 3 df -Ph | grep /$ | awk '{print $5 " of " $2}' || echo Unable to determine space
