Making hdparm parameters permanent
Hello !
On another LQ thread, I have learned that my Mandriva2007 had not activated DMA for my hard disks, except for the one with ext2 partitions, so I have to manually activate DMA using hdparm. for instance : hdparm -d1 /dev/hdf (and the same on my five hard disks) However, I need to set DMA back with every reboot. Is there a way to make changes applied thanks to hdparm permanent ? Or else (sorry to ask but i'm still a bit new to linux), is there a precise place where to put scripts meant to be ran as root at startup, or a precise file where to add our command lines ? I don't know if there is one, so far the only solution I can find myself is to add this to /usr/bin/ and link it to my KDE's Autostart folder. If you have suggestions, i'll appreciate the help, thanks if you can :) |
add a line to your /etc/rc.local it is the last script to be actioned so your hardware is already detected...with root password of course
eg hdparm -d1 /dev/hdf |
Thank you Aus9 :)
I have also received (in PM, I wonder why) another possibily, /etc/sysconfig/harddisks Thanks again :) |
