Someone else has mentioned trashing their root file system. I did this recently....:-(.
I would like to make root read only, but it seems that this is not possible. I've put /var, /home, /tmp and /usr one different file systems, and that works ok - but gentoo writes to /etc during bootup. I can't put /etc on a separate file system, because it is needed during boot. Does anyone have any solutions to this? I've looked through the various startup scripts, but I can't find the one that mounts the root partition - if I did, I could put /etc on a separate partition and mount that at the same time as /. Any clues would be most welcome.. cheers, Gareth -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
