I have been playing with openmosix kernel. During the boot process, hdparm causes a lot of disk activity for a long period (>2 mins) and does not activate the dma, for ex.
I have *not* changed the configuration from previous kernels.
hdparm program commands work fine!
I tried to launch the script manually. The same thing happens and the computer remained blocked even crashed my X-kde session.
I tried to debug placing "ewarns" into the script but I only got 1 output - procedure checkconfig just before the first "for". for i in `dir /dev/discs`
dir /dev/discs manually executed gives a correct response! disc0 disc1 disc2
Perhaps the ewarn outputs are somehow buffered. Is there a better way to debug the rc scripts?
I can't see any reason for this strange behaviour.
Thanks for any help.
