see http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#SRVDATAFORSERVICESPROVIDEDBYSYSTEM This directory is there to be used by services on the system, and many of these cannot operate, if the directory is not writeable. At least at set up time they all need to write their data somehow, and as cvs is one example mentioned there, it can be assumed that the srv dir is writeable the whole time. I am sure it's not FAI's fault if you make this directory read-only, even at FAI setup time, but if you onle run FAI there, you are free to make it read-only after havin run fai-setup, or, you can even run fai-setup/make-fai-nfsroot on your nfs server, pointing it to where ever your /srv export is. Please ask on the fai mailing list for help, if you need further hints. I'm closing this issue now. Henning -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
