Don't touch the restrict checkboxes... /etc/fstab is NEVER updated. As for the rest, you can defer them as you wish by not running etc-update or dispatch-conf and break up the pieces when something breaks (pretty much granted with udev/baselayout updates). Also, have a look at dispatch.conf and /etc/dispatch.conf.conf for backups, updates automation etc. etc. etc. Err, dispatch-conf and /etc/dispatch-conf.conf that is... /etc/fstab WAS updated in the last 'emerge -u world' I did, and etc-update would have replaced it, had I not seen it in my list of updates(it's been a while since I've done /etc/update, so I had quite a bunch of updates to do...I didn't think fstab would be in there, and I don't know why it was). |
