Question Mount read only and with noatime.


I've been told that by mounting my CF cards I could save time on the copy if I could mount them as read only and with the noatime flag. the problem is that I have no clue where to fix those parameters. I guess it is in my /etc/fstab ??? What would the line look like?

Thanks

Claude

Your /etc/fstab may have an entry for the /dev/sdxx device.

ro,noatime should appear on the options section
