Thanks Elimar!  Here's what it says:

   root@bigal:~# hdparm -I /dev/sda | grep -A15 Configuration:
   Configuration:
        Logical         max     current

        cache/buffer size  = unknown

The disk itself is one of the new Seagate "hybrid" disks, with 8GB of flash and 
1TB of "Advanced Format" spinning iron oxide.

Has anyone tried this with the Wheezy for x86 or amd64?  I'm wondering if it's 
a bug resulting from something having to do with PowerPC, or more general than 
that...

Thanks!

Rick
