startup question

[Mikus Grinbergs]

I'm used to "regular" Linux, where I can access files from a command 
without having to go through the Journal.  I have an SD card in my 
XO, on which I keep files regarding setting up / customizing the XO.

Apparently, the XO goes out and "scans" my SD card, so that it can 
show me the SD content if I were to click on the SD icon in the 
Journal view.  Is there a way for me to __inhibit__ this scan of the 
SD card -- the scan takes time, and it is unlikely that I will ever 
want to access these SD directories/files through the Journal view ?
