Is there a way that I can tell what is writing to my flash drive? It seems that there is a lot more write activity to my flash drive than normal, like 10 writes a minute according to the main management page. After noticing a lot of writes I'll sort the files on my flash by date modified, but I am not noticing anything being updated.

 

Not sure if its a plugin, release related (I've really started to notice this when I upgraded to rc8a), or if I just haven't been paying close attention to it before..

 

Thanks,

Install "Inotify Tools" then simply invoke

inotifywait -mr  /boot

to see what  is happening.
