Simply write a file at "/etc/rc0.d/S00hdd-shutdown-workaround" which includes this two lines:
#!/bin/sh echo 1 > /sys/class/scsi_disk/0\:0\:0\:0/stop_on_shutdown If you have more than one directory at "/sys/class/scsi_disk/" try to find out which of it is your internal harddisk (e.g. "cat /sys/class/scsi_disk/a:b:c:d/device/model") If you have more than one harddisk add another line for each of them. Then make it executable ("chmod +x filename") At the next shutdown it should park the hd heads. -- bad hard disk noise on shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67810 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
