Sorry, but putting the private key on a 'ro' (read-only, i.e. write-protected) disk just won't let you modify it... you'll still be able to use it to sign files... The only way to circumvent a user signing a file using a private key is to use this method in conjuction with CRC/MD5 checking from a non-networked box. Perhaps a box which automatically (via cron) dials up to the server every day and compares its file with the server file then disconnects... and you could use a random time so that the attacker will have to listen all day if he wants to try and root the safebox.
