Artur,

Yes, I incorrectly expressed myself. I intended to write:
copying the database and the whole (client) application
with all the embedded server stuff (dll-s, etc.) to one CD,
which then could be run from this CD.
But Helen already answered my question :-).

Anyway, it would be great if we could run a whole app + server + db
stuff from that CD. If read only, then exclusive lock on database
doesn't make any sense.
