Hi,

is it advisable to enable soft dependencies on FFS filesystems on
CompactFlash Cards? I think that there are no crucial seek times to be
avoided as is the case with mechanical disks which physically have to
move their heads.

For CF cards the total number of writes per cell is more of an issue,
I think. In this respect, is Softdep good or bad for filesystems on
CF-Cards?


Regards,

Bernd
