Hi,
OMG what do I have to do to post here? 10th attempt. {part2}
Here is a non-exhaustive list of typical devices types requiring fat vfat support:
fd ide-hd scsi-hd usb-hd cdrom usb-hd usb-handheld (iPod, iRiver etc) usb-flash (usbsticks, cameras, some music devices.)
IIRC the sync mount option for vfat is ignored for file systems >2G, this effectively (and probably intentionally) excludes nearly all hd partitions and iPod type devices.
sync does not have any meaning for CD DVD media. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
