i don't have a ups but i do leave my linux system up all the time. it
occurred to me that it might be a good idea to mount my root and usr
filesystems read-only, so that if the power cut out, they would be as
safe.
what do i need to do in order to mount these in such a manner?

The FHS is the next iteration of FSSTND, the Linux file system
standard.

leading to number of packages being required or conflicting with
eachother.
I finally get apache to install and along the way upgaded a number of
packages among them are perl and related packages, dpkg, libg++272,

It's best for now to mount root for write and /usr read-only. Under
normal operations I think the files in /etc are only written at
system start-up and shut-down (and during backups) and it might be
possible to have root read-only at other times. The _dates_ in /dev
are changed but the actual files

I remember reading guidlines for installing non debian software, but I can't
