DO_FSCK - A boolean (y/n) setting. Specifies if the filesystem should be checked
before being mounted. This parameter defaults to "n" in the /etc/pcmcia/ide.opts
file.
DO_MOUNT - If set to 'y', the card will be mounted automatically upon insertion.
This parameter defaults to 'n' if not mentioned in the /etc/pcmcia/ide.opts file.
FS_TYPE - Can be either 'vfat' or 'ext2'. Determines the filesystem type.
MOUNTPT - The mount point where the partition will be mounted.
NO_CHECK/NO_FUSER - Boolean (y/n) settings for card eject policy. If
NO_CHECK is true, then "cardctl eject" will shut down a device even if it is busy.
If NO_FUSER is true, then the script will not try to kill processes using an ejected
device. These parameters defaults to "n" if not mentioned in the
/etc/pcmcia/ide.opts file.
PARTS - A list of partitions to be mounted. The conf file will be called again for
each partition. In the example above, there is an entry only for partition '1', but you
can eg. set PARTS="1 3 4" and add entries for the case statement like:
*,*,*,3)
# settings for partition 3
;;
*,*,*,4)
# settings for partition 4
;;
To give different configuration for slot 0 and 1, the second parameter in the case
statement can be used. For example:
*,0,*,1)
# settings for slot 0
;;
*,1,*,1)
# settings for slot 1
;;
Step 3 - Save the configuration.
To save any configuration done in the /etc/pcmcia/ide.opts file is necessary to run
the command:
# saveconf
Before removing the media pcmcia card from the ACS you MUST run "cardctl
WARNING:
eject", otherwise data might not be correctly written to disk and result in corruption of the
media. Correct operation of the ACS is not guaranteed if eject is not executed.
