Did it say 'head parked'? If the drive is idle, you wont hear anything. Laptop drives auto-park really quickly themselves. A time ./park /dev/hda should tell you whether it needed to park or not, if it executes faster than a few hundred ms it was already parked. -- Jens Axboe - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
