in these cases - where "runs" is the top priority and manual intervention is hard - you most probably want to run with ro / and an mfs or three. <brahe@tion> $ mount /dev/wd0a on / type ffs (local, read-only) mfs:17968 on /tmp type mfs (asynchronous, local, noatime, nodev, noexec, nosuid, size=19456 512-blocks) mfs:28804 on /var type mfs (asynchronous, local, noatime, nodev, noexec, nosuid, size=38912 512-blocks) mfs:5076 on /dev type mfs (asynchronous, local, noatime, noexec, nosuid, size=2048 512-blocks) this is still a bit like "fixing" holey condoms with duct tape. -- Henning Brauer, [email protected], [email protected] BS Web Services, http://bsws.de, Full-Service ISP Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services.
