Re: [arch-general] GPT slower than MBR, although both are properly aligned?

You need to consider the structures that are written at the start of the partition, aligning only the partition start may not be enough (read, it is not the partition start you need to align). You need to consider the amount of data these structures use so the data part of the partition is aligned

[arch-general] GPT slower than MBR, although both are properly aligned?

Hi, I'm about to setup a new Arch box and wanted to use GPT instead of the (old) MBR partition scheme, just for the fun of it ;). I've read through the various articles in the wiki, but it seems that something strange is going on here. I'm about to install the system to a SSD (Kingston S100), th

Hi guys. Is that the intended purpose? I was having a problem with the mouse module from KDE system settings and discovered that I didn't have libusb-compat. When I listed its contents just to check, I saw that it is the owner of /usr/lib/libusb.so and it is pointing to /usr/lib/libusb.so.0.1.so.4
