I think you misunderstood the first reply: smartd, as in the init script is a means to alert root of pending issues, _it_ doesn't present the data, _that_ init script simply checks it and reports it. You don't need it running to make the data available, the attributes exist in the device. jlc _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
