I bought device to serve as mini server at my home. It's has 32GByte eMMC inside which I use for the root partition.
I had troubles with ubuntu running on eMMC until I followed the advice here[1]: - disable swap. - Put /tmp into ramfs - use noatime - Store /var/log not on eMMC The first three points could be done during installing ubuntu. I am naive user and it took me some time to discover the solution. I guess it is very difficult to detect during install that the underlaying hard disk is an eMMC and use appropriate config. What do you think? If you are curious it is this device: http://up-shop.org/home/81-up-gws01w4g-memory32g-emmc-boardwo-vesa-plate.html Regards, Thomas Güttler [1] http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/169/how-can-i-extend-the-life-of-my-sd-card/186#186 http://askubuntu.com/questions/880947/linux-on-emmc-corrupt-file-system -- http://www.thomas-guettler.de/ -- 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
