X-Enigmail-Version: 0.83.0.0 X-Enigmail-Supports: pgp-inline, pgp-mime Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I have been using linux-2.6.6 for almost 2 weeks now, but I have rebooted only once till today... As I was playing with some options and had to reboot quite a few times today, I noticed that on each reboot (Ctrl+Alt+Del), all hard drives are powerd down (a loud noise of the heads being parked and drive spinned down can be heard). When the machine boots again, there is a considerable delay (1-2s) when each hard drive is reinitialized/spinned-up. This was not the case in 2.6.5. Is there any way to change this in 2.6.6? Did I turn on/off something by chance in the .config? I just did: gzcat /proc/config.gz |diff -u -- /usr/src/linux-2.6.5/.config - but I cannot see anything suspicious, although there are quite a few changes, mainly inm order to have more modules. No ideas how to "debug" such situations... Kalin. -- ||///_ o ***************************** ||//'_/> WWW: http://ThinRope.net/ |||\/<" |||\\ ' ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
