I decided to explore using an ssd drive. I purchased a 40G Intel SSD and so far it works well with SVN-20120514.
I created a GPT partition table with a 10G partition using parted and formatted as ext4. The performance seems to be good. htparm gives me about 230 GB/s which is more than twice as fast as my usual drives that give about 105 GB/s. My question is how to best use the new drive in BLFS. I thought of /opt and /usr. I don't think /home would be very good and of course I could try to mount it as /mnt/lfs and use it as /. What would you try first? -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
