I am looking at having a read only box, it will not use a swap partition. Any recommendations?
Well, i tried two possibilities years ago.. 1.) : There are SCSI-Disks with jumpers for "Write Protect" , so you have a real Hardware write-protection.
2.) : Have a look at (Open)BSD's "Immutable Flag"-Feature. (Well, i hope you all love OpenBSD?) ;-) But....don't get nervous while setting up the box...
