I have only 256 mb Compact flash. So can not afford ext3 jounaling system. I also found it is a overkill for embedded system. So the OS uses ext2. I used "auto" and "sync" in the mount options ( please refer to earlier post) (RUN+="/bin/mount -t *auto* -o *rw*,noauto,*sync*,dirsync,noexec, nodev,noatime /dev/%k /media/usb%n", OPTIONS="last_rule") So USB sticks with ext2 , ext3 and FAT seem to be working well - provided you wait till the lights go off ! But we are mostly concerned about FAT .So we are good now.
