Actually, if you read man hdparm at the bottom it has FILES /etc/hdparm.conf Taking that as a clue, you will find that editing this file is the "correct" way to set drive parameters. There is even a man page for hdparm.conf. I also agree that the current defaults are reasonable and that proper configuration mechanisms are already in place, so there is nothing here that needs to be "fixed" in the distribution. ...Marvin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-laptop-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
