it starts in default runlevel, but i think with the new baselayout it
starts ealier then before.
Hmm, possible. I just noticed that it has a "before bootmisc"
dependancy, so it is going to start very early on. In fact, bootmisc
is considered a "CRITICAL_SERVICE" by /sbin/rc, so that means hdparm
is going to start at the same time as filesystems are mounted and
modules are loaded. I don't know if previous versions of hdparm had
this same thing or not.
I think you can either file a bug about the dependancy on bootmisc
that causes hdparm to start too early, hack the init script yourself
to remove it, or reconfigure your kernel to include the drivers for
your CD-ROMs statically, not as modules.
