hm yeah my presumption was wrong, and calling hdparm -q -S240 -q -Y /dev/sdb does set the time and put the drive to sleep without spinning it up instantly again. i should have tested that before, sorry. question is, as mihai said, what does access the hd at that time. the partitions are encrypted and only used for backups, so there is no "normal" user-space program accessing it. only things like hald, gparted and there like wake the disk. mihai: my configuration worked for you in a normal boot or did you test it another way? thanks.
