Would be interesting with a "hdparm -I /dev/hdX" for every drive attached. Anyway, I recommend you to patch your kernel with the ATA/ATAPI patches, (not?) available at www.linuxdiskcert.org _____________________________________________________ | Martin Eriksson | MSc CSE student, department of Computing Science | Ume?
