The heavy-handed approach... the firewall boots from either CD ROM https://cocoavillagepublishing.com/development/tools/openbsd/tips/cdrom or USB stick http://www.volkerroth.com/tecn-obsd-diskless.html and send log data to a remote machine that is on a UPS. Since nothing gets written to the boot media during operation, fsck is not required. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org>
