Anyone have good pointers for setting up Linux as a read only OS? Basically, I want to configure some security scanning software on a small EC2 instance, and I'd like to set it up so that when it boots the drive is mounted read only and all output/reporting is sent over to SimpleDB.
That way the scanning server itself is tamper-proof since it can't be modified while running. It gets started, it does it's scan of a list of external sites, it shuts down.
