Package: smartmontools Version: 5.32-2 Severity: normal SATA devices through libata (supported by smartmontools as long as one applies the patches in the libata-dev queue, which will probably be merged in 2.6.11) require one to smartctl -d ata /dev/sda.
Currently, this completely borks smartctl -s on support on the initscripts. Please add a way to specify the -d <type> for every device we specify for the initscript. smartd supports this natively, so this is needed only for smartctl actions. One better way would be to allow us to specify what to do in each smartctl action for every device, so that we can make the initscript do something like: smartctl -d ata -s on /dev/sda smartctl -d ata -s on /dev/sdb smartctl -d ata -s on -S on -o on /dev/hdc And so on. This is possible with smartd. -- Package-specific info: Ouput of /usr/share/bug/smartmontools: CONFIG_IDE_TASK_IOCTL=y -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-debian+libata Locale: LANG=pt_BR, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages smartmontools depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- no debconf information -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
