[Bug 864051] Re: TRIM support not enabled for SSDs

[SKIP981]

This bug affects me too. What I expect to happen when I install Ubuntu
12.04 is that it will support the TRIM by automatically entering the
'discard' option in the fstab file. I know you can do this manually but
a lot of end-users do not even know how to deal with a terminal. This is
a CRITICAL bug, especially when you are a system builder who plans on
putting SSDs for even the lowest end hardware. Unless a Newer file
system supports this TRIM command automatically, Please (and I mean
please for the sake of Linux) fix this. Thank You to all the developers
that work on Ubuntu!!

Title:
  TRIM support not enabled for SSDs

Status in “partman-target” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When creating the fstab, the discard option is not activated for SSDs
  with TRIM support. But for performance reasons, it would be very
  important to be activated.

  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu oneiric (development branch)
  Release:	11.10

  2) apt-cache policy partman-target
  N: Unable to locate package partman-target

  3) What you expected to happen
  Partitions on disk devices with TRIM support entered in fstab with the 'discard' mount option

  4) What happened instead
  Partitions on disk devices are always entered without the 'discard' option in fstab

  I hope this is the right package; I found no other package generating
  the fstab.
