Ignore. as long as there is a crash, either in windows or linux, nobody likes it. Wha I mean is that if there is problem, either the system doesn't response or shutdown, better turn to "RO" stage in linux. because you don't know there is a problem. As I said, I used the fedora 8 for sending out the email only. No email will be bounced when turning the whole filesystem into read only mode. All emais sent out using the computer were just discarded since it cannot generate the file in /var directory. It might take days or weeks to know there are something wrong with the computer. Don't you prefer the system got shutdown with "shutdown -r -F now"? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
