How to change mount default option to symlink=1? #3

Closed eMPee584 closed 4 years ago

eMPee584 commented 4 years ago

We're trying to put a (parts?) of a root fs on here.. (live linux, overlay).. Also, how to set the system/hidden attribute on files so windows won't see?

Not sure how mounting procedure is done under your circumstance, but having a look at fstab would be the first step.

More than likely this driver won't support such non-standard stuffs.

Well obviously our mounting takes place without fstab, that's why I asked how to change the default.

FAT filesystem attributes are not "non-standard stuff" .. man fatattr(1)

You can pass flags when doing the initial mount. Also, maybe a remount with the new flags would work.

Maybe these attributes could be bi-directionally mapped using extended attributes...
