Just thinking out loud, but it would be really helpful to get drive
vendor's a basic set of tests for Linux systems - error handling,
performance, SMART features, etc - that would run natively on linux.
We would need to get something really easy to deploy, like a live CD
image with the test suite that could be booted on a pc, to get into an
environment that is used to booting DOS based floppies...
