X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2007 02:51:28 -0000 Have a server with 3 large filesystems. I would like to have only one checked by fsck and mounted. The other two I want to fsck and mount manually. Is it enough to change options to "rw,noauto" and pass to 0 for the two I don't want mounted or fscked? This is so in case of a crash, like we had today, the machine will be up sooner. The two filesystem that I will set to noauto, are used by cron jobs which can wait.
