I'm building a new box and I'd like to install the root filesystem ona compact flash card. Not too hard. But I want / to be read-only, toavoid premature wear out of the flash.

It seems that I need to use a "union filesystem" that will let memount some writable directories (/etc, /var, ???) from another device.

My brain is too tiny for this stuff, so I need some help. URLS,whatever, would be appreciated. If you've successfully done somethinglike this, please share.


Thanks,

John
