I have a couple of SATA drives connected via a USB dock that I use only for backups. Normally they are powered down and only come on at night during the backup run. However they also power on any time I reboot the system and have to be powered down again manually. I'd prefer not to power them on at all until they're needed. Is there some magic that would inhibit the boot process from powering up these devices? Note that the /etc/fstab entry already has 'noauto' but that just prevents them from being mounted. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
