| I read that ext3 journals a lot and could possibly thrash | my card. Is it ok to use it? One of the things to like about SD Card and other card / stick memory is it hides many of the details of raw NAND from us, like bad blocks, error correcting codes and in this case wear levelling. I have run my mailserver on a 1G USB stick (hooked up to an ARM board I designed for another customer) for 2 years 24 / 7 now formatted ext3, that gets pretty hammered, no trouble. So I can't guarantee your particular card isn't broken for wear levelling, but cheap random USB stick doesn't care in the least about ext3 and I didn't see any trouble from SD with ext3 either. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkiazOQACgkQOjLpvpq7dMqaBgCfb4iP7Og2V9KbrwZynuLfCWja fbAAn08sIIQBSDeJBBxn2073RfXzjpH/ =nBaC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ support mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
