i don't have a ups but i do leave my linux system up all the time. it occurred to me that it might be a good idea to mount my root and usr filesystems read-only, so that if the power cut out, they would be as safe.
what do i need to do in order to mount these in such a manner? i know of only one file specifically that is written to on those two partitions: /etc/mtab. is this the only one? if not, what are the others? if so, where is the proper place to repartition it so i can mount root and usr read-only? thanks, paul j. thompson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
