Subject: Automatically mount or remount EXT3 partitions with EXT2 when a laptop is powered by a battery?
Date: 24 Jun 2002 13:02:26 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1024948946.30229.19.camel@turbulence.megapathdsl.net> (raw)
Hi,
Is there any possibility we could:
1) Add support to the boot/mounting process
so that, if a machine is being powered by
battery, EXT3 partitions are mounted with
EXT2, instead?
2) While the machine is running, notice when the
power source switches between AC and battery
or vice versa and remount partitions EXT3
partitions to use EXT2 whenever a battery is
being used?
This could save laptop users a lot of power,
while keeping the benefits of EXT3 when AC
power is available.
I know that this can be accomplished with more
direct user intervention, but I am hoping a more
general and transparent solution can be created.
Miles
