[SunHELP] mounting "/" as "logging"

[Joshua Fielden]

We mount every filesystem in our company, and I mount every filesystem at home (UFS and VXFS) logging, with great results. The slight hit on / and /var in time more than pays for itself with crash-resistance.

These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
