Yes you can argue the messages are important (or you could argue that it's important that the data on the drive won't get broken and you dont wake up the disk with random writes too early:)). Neverless, currently hdapsd just does a printf () on those messages above. And the init script start hdapsd in background mode, so it does not have a stdout to print to, and all the nice messages go to /dev/null :) As I have taken over upstream maintainance, I might find some time and hack a syslog patch, but please don't expect it too soonish :) Regards Evgeni -- Bruce Schneier Fact Number 1101: Bruce Schneier's Birthday collides with nobodys
