Hi all.
I'm building an industrial application hosted by several
independent cpu server,
each of them booted from a CFlash on sdD0.
The application doesn't write on sdD0 and there are no redirection on
local files

In this particular situation fossil should be actually used read only
so allowing
to use write protected CF and/or to suddenly power off the system
without
damaging the file system.
Instead, fossil writes on sdD0 (doesn't boot fom a write protected
CF) and the
power loss destroy the file system more than fifty-fifty.
Unfortunately I cannot guarantee stable/correct operating conditions.
Any suggestion ?
Thanks in advance

Fossil is essentially a cache for Venti, the non-Venti special case is
what you are attempting to use.
Perhaps kfs / cws would be a better choice.
I've made a customized install procedure copying from the standard one.
Where can i find
a procedure for kfs to copy from? Can kfs be configured to be
absolutely insentive to hard power down ?
Or even booting from a CD.
I've only a CF slot. And, in any case, the environment doesn't allow to
use mechanical devices.
