Do you know if noflushd will eventually spin the disk up again if cache becomes full?

Hi,

I have this old laptop I turned into a firewall. It is only doing IP forwarding (NAT, MASQUERADING or whatever it takes) using iptables. I have 256MB ram on it. My idea is to have the disk spin down unless it is needed.
Any idea?


Mount root with noatime.
Google for noflushd.
Stop all unnecessary daemons.
Good luck,
