Cheap USB drives, and even many CF drives, aren't much good as random read-write devices. On my Soekris boxen I run FreeBSD, and mount the root filesystem rw,noatime. And I don't write to it. ;-) /var is a memory filesystem, there /var/db/... contain symbolic links to /usr/local/db/.. because the package database can grow quite large. /tmp is a symlink to /var/tmp.
Configured this way, these machines are trouble-free. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-usb To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
