Is it possible to change the debian mail list settings in order to hide one

Hi all.
Where should I put a script that sets my drives settings with hdparm?
Is there a template or guideline to follow in debian for making init scripts?
Finally: Is there some way different from hdparm to inform the kernel the
behavior I want in my ide drives?
Thanks in advance

Seems to me that for the first time debian is going to have real competition
in its own field.
Red Hat announced that they will join with fedora community and produce the

Hi all.
I installed a package (and all its dependencies) from unstable using apt, then
I realized that some of the libraries installed were too new and compromised
the stability of my system.
Is there some way to downgrade a package and all its dependencies using apt?
The way I solved this was

With this module you can execute c++ code in python at c speed.
Anyway, it didn't work in my debian unstable.

You can pass the init=3 parameter to the kernel at boot time to start in
runlevel 3 which should be console only, with networking.
Now, in debian for some reason I don't undestand, runlevels 2, 3 and 5 have
the same init scripts, so you have to fix that first.

It looks like RH will become more debian like in the sense that they will alow
