The hardware can be in top knotch, and problems can still occurr with filesystems. Many a time, I've seen an fsck finish on a root filesystem, and have to reboot the system due to changes, even when there have been no crashes on the system since the filesystem was created. If you really want to turn them off, or at least reduce their freqquency, you can use the tune2fs command to do so, but I personally would leave things as they are. - -- Luke Yelavich GPG key: 0xD06320CE (http://www.themuso.com/themuso-gpg-key.txt) Email & MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFG+2y1jVefwtBjIM4RAhv0AJ0ZaeSLJyLoLx2OqU5hNCiXO8aqQACg1Fp7 UzXrnw0CP5jKP63iMD6fr/M= =JClM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
