 |
|
Hi! I have edited /etc/conf.d/hdparm and added to disc0_args some arugments.
Now if I execute /etc/init.d/hdparm it does nothing. On the contrary, if I run hdparm manualy with all parametrs it works.
Can you help me? 10x. |

Are you doing | Code: | | # /etc/init.d/hdparm start |
?
To have it run automatically at each boot: | Code: | | # rc-update add hdparm default |
. |

yes. if I just run /etc/init.d/hdpram it responds with ok.
but if I run after that hdparm /dev/hda I see that it didn't change any option. this is a problem. |

I'm seeing this too. If I do hparm -X70 -c3 -m16 /dev/hdb it work... but then I lose at reboot. When I add these lines to /etc/conf.d/hdparm and reboot they don't stick. And I added /etc/init.d/hdparm by doing rc-update add hdparm default.
This is weird |

| Strange, don't know what the problem is. How about showing us exactly the contents of your /etc/conf.d/hdparm & /etc/init.d/hdparm. |

This hdparms output after I boot my system.
# hdparm /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
multcount = 16 (on)
IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit)
unmaskirq = 0 (off)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 8 (on)
geometry = 9729/255/63, sectors = 156301488, start = 0
Now I run /etc/init.d/hdparm
# /etc/init.d/hdparm start
Starting hdparm...
Running hdparm on disc0...
Running hdparm on cdrom0.
If after I ran /etc/init.d/hdparm I run "hdparm /dev/hda" I see that
nothing has changed.
# hdparm /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
multcount = 16 (on)
IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit)
unmaskirq = 0 (off)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 8 (on)
geometry = 9729/255/63, sectors = 156301488, start = 0
but if I run It manulay:
# hdparm -qX70 -qu1 -qc3 -qm16 -qA1 -qk1 /dev/hda
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)
/dev/hda:
multcount = 16 (on)
IO_support = 3 (32-bit w/sync)
unmaskirq = 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 1 (on)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 8 (on)
geometry = 9729/255/63, sectors = 156301488, start = 0
this is mine /etc/conf.d/hdparm

| Well all looks ok to me, don't know why it fails. Does it make any difference if you use /dev/discs/disc0/disc instead of /dev/hda in your manual hdparm commands? |

The q's are pointless; /etc/init.d/hdparm just sends the output of hdparm to /dev/null,
so you wouldn't see anything, anyway.
Who knows; maybe that will help.... |

if run hdparm -qX70 -qu1 -qc3 -qm16 -qA1 -qk1 /dev/discs/disc0/disc
it is the same as when I run dparm -qX70 -qu1 -qc3 -qm16 -qA1 -qk1 /dev/hda1 |

Im not sure on this one, but i would comment out the all_args line, and put the "-d1" in the disc0_args line your drive, cos I think that you can use either the arg list for each drive OR the all_args line as it says, so as you've got it set up at the moment all that hdparm will do is set dma as thats the last line in your hdparm conf file.
Just have this line in /etc/conf.d/hdparm
disc0_args="-qX70 -qu1 -qc3 -qm16 -qA1 -qk1 -d1"
May be wrong but I'd give it a shot.
