actually, i think a partial fix for this problem (ie, the power
going out) was proposed back in 2002:
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3251.html
but i'm not sure if anyone ever completed a reference
implementation of the spec...

I guess since it's now tornado season I need to set up the zone to autoboot
when the host boots, and then set up srcds to start when the zone boots so it
won't need a manual restart next time. The filesystem didn't get trashed, but
I'm thinking hard about converting to ZFS since I've spent too much of my life
running fsck after power outages.
