Yes definitly a bug - just discovered it by accident ... The idea to use udev for this is quite nice, but has a design flaw. by definition this is doomed to failure IMHO. At the time of add sd? execute something which needs filesystem access on possibly the same drive (right before mount) - not sure that would ever work. (Can someone proof me wrong - at least for /etc/hdparm.conf you might get problems ?)
Upstart Job like this could help - not sure on suspend to ram case ? start on filesystem script for DISK in $(find /dev/[hs]d?) ; do DEVNAME=$DISK export DEVNAME /lib/udev/hdparm done end script Beside that i think, if it is set successfully the spindown still does not happen, still trying to find out what happens. Somebody can confirm this or is it just me ? (Well i suppose i have to open another bug, not before i dont know what happens) Please let me know ... -- Settings in /etc/hdparm.conf are not applied during boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/595138 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
