Sd Mount Options 3.5.3
« on: April 30, 2005, 05:53:30 am »
In my fstab I use the sync option mounting my SD, and this makes file transfers excruciatingly slow.

This was a bug in 3.5.2 i think, and we mounted with async instead right?

Didn't we fix some problem supposedly in order to be able to change back to using sync in 3.5.3?

Not quite - what we did was patch the kernel to honor the async for filesystems and patch sdcontrol to honor the options in fstab.

Previously the sharp patches forced everything to be sync ignoring the entries in fstab.
