# WARNING! #
# #
# The "sync" option may not be a good choice to use with flash drives, as #
# it forces a greater amount of writing operating on the drive. This makes #
# the writing speed considerably lower and also leads to a faster wear out #
# of the disk. #
# #
# If you omit it, don't forget to use the command "sync" to synchronize the #
# data on your disk before removing the drive or you may experience data #
# loss. #
# #
# It is highly recommended that you use the pumount command (as a regular #
# user) before unplugging the device. It makes calling the "sync" command #
# and mounting with the sync option unnecessary---this is similar to other #
# operating system's "safely disconnect the device" option. #
#############################################################################
# Mount options: Options passed to the mount command with the -o flag.
# See the warning above regarding removing "sync" from the options.
MOUNTOPTIONS="sync,noexec,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,gid=plugdev,umask=0000"
# Filesystem type specific mount options: This variable contains a space
# separated list of strings, each which the form "-fstype=TYPE,OPTIONS".
#
# If a filesystem with a type listed here is mounted, the corresponding
# options are appended to those specificed in the MOUNTOPTIONS variable.
#
# For example, "-fstype=vfat,gid=floppy,dmask=0007,fmask=0117" would add
# the options "gid=floppy,dmask=0007,fmask=0117" when a vfat filesystem
# is mounted.
FS_MOUNTOPTIONS=""
# If set to "yes", more information will be logged via the syslog
