If you want... It's been on my list of things to do.
Whatever you come up with send it my way and I will put it up.
BTW I'm close to a boot floppy that should be able to understand xfs
file systems. Hopefully I will be able to install a system from scratch
using only XFS.
This remounting from rw to ro is something we need to get ironed out
before running a root xfs system is recommended.
Thanks for all your efforts.
