That is, if it is mounted do do so. Just pass a "noatime" parameter to the mount command (or fstab line) and the atime (access time) will not be written. Common when using very slow storage devices, or devices with somewhat limited read/write cycles (like old compactflash memories). -- Renato -------------------------------- Usi Fedora?
