    If im delete line 31:
        public static function ExitIfNotRoot()
    {
        // Need to check that we are superuser before running this.
        if(exec("whoami") != "root"){
            echo "Must be root user.\n";
            exit(1);
        }
    }

    "exec() has been disabled for security reasons" means that function "exec" is disabled in php.ini
    Make sure that /etc/php5/cli/php.ini contains:
    safe_mode = Off
    disable_functions =

    safe_mode = Off and disable_functions =
