With 22 gigs of file systems connected to our freebsd machine, crashing
and having to fsck them all is quite a pain.  LFS is a solution in the
long term, but in the mean time is it possible to set up something 
like amd to keep file systems read-only until a write access is attempted
and then put them back into read-only after some delay?

as I'm doing a lot of unscheduled rebooting :) lately, I've just been
making everything I can read-only (by hand).  I was even thinking of an
ugly solution like a crontab entry to make our ftp mirror archives r/w
only during the mirroring window. yick. 

would amd help?
