  I can't think of any simple way to do it.  One way to do it though is
to create a seperate root volume containing just what you want in
it(hence no RW mounts).  So you create something like root.afs.simple,
and then add the option "-rootvol root.afs.simple" to your startup
scripts on the clients.
