-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I included an additional SXX in the rc2.d dir as follows:-
#! /bin/sh # Enabling dma for hda hdparm -d1 -c1 -a1 -A1 -m8 -k1 /dev/hda Remember to chmod the file created to 755 less it does not execute at boot. Also, I'd manually try this first before actually including the above, particularly the -d1 as on some systems, it screws up the hardisk. Also, try a combination of the settings to get the optimum performance from the hardisk (this can be tested using the hdparm -t /dev/hda). Good luck!

(would inserting it into an existing file in /etc/init.d be appropriate?)
