How to add noatime to my fstab?

Hi there, on my first Arch Linux installation I created my / partition (/dev/sda3) with JFS filesystem. I now want to add the noatime attribute to it to make it a little speedier. Below its my current fstab. I think I should edit the last line to add noatime but I'm not sure how it should look after the edit. Can someone please help?

Thanks!

# 
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system>        <dir>         <type>    <options>          <dump> <pass>
none                   /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
none                   /dev/shm      tmpfs     defaults            0      0


/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom   iso9660   ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
/dev/dvd /mnt/dvd   udf   ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/fd0   vfat   user,noauto   0      0
/dev/sda1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda3 / jfs defaults 0 1

Re: How to add noatime to my fstab?

You should add noatime to the options argument, so:

/dev/sda3 / jfs defaults,noatime 0 1
