Re: [gentoo-dev] hdparm in init

[Wouter van Kleunen]

as init.d script it would look like:

---
#!/sbin/runscript
	
depend() {
	need bootmisc	
}

start() {
	[ -e /usr/sbin/hdparm ] || return
	if [ -e /etc/hdparm.conf ] 
	then
		(cat /etc/hdparm.conf) |
		while read hd params
		do
			ebegin "Setting parameters for harddisk: $hd"
			/usr/sbin/hdparm $params /dev/discs/$hd/disc > /dev/null
			eend $?
		done
		echo
	fi

	return
}

----

But i have no idea how to make gentoo have it run as one of the first 
scripts, to reduce boottime (a little). 

Maybe name it 00hdparm or something.
