Basically that wasn't the idea behind it. We wanted to prevent a cluster with 
more then one node to not coming up with splitbrain when both nodes are 
powered up initially. It's basically a way to wait until both nodes are up 
and running. We didn't want to risk doublemounts for users not being very 
sensitive with booting machines or just first level supporters don't 
bothering much about data consistency. 

So for you I would be just add the bootoption quorumack if you don't have 
anybody else being able to reboot/fence your clusternodes without much 
experience.
