Hi Mitch, I'm working on getting bootable ext3 images to put on SD cards to use on the XO, to run the XS distro.
While I am not expecting the SD card to deal with a heavy write workload (the recommended strategy is to use an external disk for /var/lib and /library ), I am still keen on avoiding early SD card death... Do we have any good rule of thumb on any partition alignment + blocksize that is likely to work well on current SD cards in the market? I've read your notes, and Tytso's blogposts about it; but maybe I'm not cultured enough to come up with a confident rule of thumb, and definitely have no idea whether it's possible to write a script to run on current linuxen that probes an SD card and Does The Right Thing. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
