Great! Thanks, have to give it a try later today. My mythtv takes
20sec to start on my reiser3.6 system. I was googling a little to find
out what nolargeio means. It puts the default I/O request size from
the more efficient 128k back to the old default value 4k. And some
applications get confused when they're at once able to put 128k of
data to the disc.
Does it mean that Myth is one of those applications?
