While /etc's overmounted is it still possible to update the underlying /etc/fstab and make other needed config changes?

Ah. I overmount that as early as possible, which cures many evils (and leaves a very nice fallback system if something fails in startup; you just fall back to "nothing enabled" with a r/o root). But, still, that's seldom more than a few hundred K (and mostly text files at that, which don't get much versioning). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
