Also, to make this change permanent, modify your parmfile to mark the disk read- only like this: ... dasd=1234,5678(ro),... You need to re-run zipl and reboot to make the change effective. Afterwards, the command: cat /sys/bus/ccw/devices/0.0.1200/readonly should give you the value "1".
I also would like to second Mark's comment on choosing a journaling filesystem for a read-only volume... -- Carsten Otte IBM Linux technology center ARCH=s390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
