Package: partman-base Severity: wishlist You should probably look at setting the new 'relatime' mount option by default for new installations. It's supported in current kernels and mount. It should st least be supported in partman. See [1] for a very interesting discussion about relatime.
For the "multi" recipes it could even be an option to set 'noatime' by default for some filesystems (like /boot and /usr). I understand Ubuntu is possibly already doing this. Filing the BR against partman-base as this affects multiple partman components. This will need some additional research as I have not checked if all filesystems support relatime. Possibly in the future 'relatime' can be enabled by default using a kernel option. Cheers, FJP [1] http://kerneltrap.org/node/14148
