Usually it's a better idea to use a r/w mounted ramdisk I think. One problem is, that i.e. /etc/mtab needs to be written, usually.
Yep, also the kernel needs write access to everything under /var, otherwise [...] Furthermore, /tmp quite often requires write access.
I found, that I could use symlinks for that directories, I had such a config on a server running without problems. Sometimes /var has it's own partition, and so /tmp. Another way seems to put symlinks /tmp and /var pointing to a "own" (r/w of course) partition, which at least decreases problems at system crashes, what do you think? oki, Steffen -- Dieses Schreiben wurde maschinell erstellt, es trägt daher weder Unterschrift noch Siegel.
