Subject: compression on external hard drive?
Date: Sun, 26 May 2013 00:11:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51A1372B.6060402@gnata.eu> (raw)
Hello list,
Nowdays, external hard drives are mounted automagically by kde, gnome or
whatever else.
How is it suppose to work with external hard drives using btrfs with
compression?
If a btrfs filesystem lzo-compressed is mounted without the
|compress=|xxx option then all the newly created files are uncompressed,
aren't then?
Would it be possible to detect if a file system is compressed and to
mount it *automatically* and accordingly (except otherwise explicitly
stated by the user) with/without the lzo/gzip option?
Xavier
