Hi,
It seems /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/95hdparm-apm script from the hdparm
package may be called when AC power adapter is plugged or unplugged
(true/false arguments). I see that this script is invoked by
/lib/udev/rules.d/85-hdparm.rules through /lib/udev/hdparm on boot or
resume.

Whitelist it. A file should be called

Thanks for the tip, saving for later.

it was active with hdparm -C, waited 5s, confirmed it was in standby.

You have to call "sync", otherwise you've measured the time to write to

Hi,
I used the command hdparm -U 1 /dev/hdc1 to unregister the ide1 interface.
The PC responded with:
attempting to unregister hwif#1
But that's it. And as far as I understand the C code, than -U doesn't really
do antything. I only found:
if (unregister_hwif) {
printf("
org/debian-user/2004/10/msg01086.html
I just need to rescan the IDE-Bus and the only safe way, that really rescans
the bus and works 100% of the time, that appears to me is to make modules
moving them in and out (I hope that insmod IDE rescans the bus; some more
research has to be done here). B

Why not take the drives out and deploy them elsewhere?
You can run a special-purpose distro such as ipc
. I will be getting Internet access via a Linksys
802.11b USB device plugged into the K6-2 box. This box will also be the

One question, in hopes that I can learn someth

I still haven't run final conclusive tests on the old drive, but with a
new Maxtor 80 GB 7200 RPM 8 MB cache mumble disk in the box, I'm getting
hdparm disk read results in the 48 - 51 MiB/sec range. *Vastly* better.
I'm also no longer hearing the clicks which were
e Maxtor test utility (Smartmon?) which requires a
legacy MS Windows box to create a floppy (idiots). Remind me to cut an
image of that. Haven't run it yet as I'd need to reboot the system and
kill my backup.
I _also_ booted the system on Knoppix briefly to check that it was

If you can, I think I'd try a different drive. You may not have much choice
anyway. When mine decided to die, it gave me no real warning. Weird
problems, but nothing I could really put my finger on. I kept thinking it
