There is an error in the syntax under the "low-latency IO-scheduler" section at
the following URL (https://wiki.debian.org/SSDOptimization). The text reads:
"The default I/O scheduler queues data to minimize
seeks on HDDs, which is not necessary for SSDs. Thus, use the deadline
scheduler that just ensures bulk transactions won't slow down small
transactions: Install sysfsutils and
echo "block.sdX.queue.scheduler = deadline" >> /etc/sysfs.conf
(adjust sdX to match your SSD) reboot or..."
The syntax of the echo command should read as follows:
"echo "block/sdX/queue/scheduler = deadline" >> /etc/sysfs.conf"
Note the change of the periods (.) to forward slashed (/)
I verified this in debian testing after applying the SSD optimizations.
Thanks,
Patrick M. Sullivan
