i was reffering to making changes with hdparm. if you set something that
may cause corruption you don't want all those other processes/levels
making reads/writes in the background so you boot to single-user mode
first.

If I may ask, why in single user mode? Whats the benefit or risk?
In general why would one use single user mode? Thanks.

I tried to register for the sysadmin class today, they
said that only 2 people had registered & took my name
& phone #. Anyone who is interested should call soon,
before they pull the plug.

I bought a WD 250GB (230Gib) drive last week and it works fine in RH9.
It comes with a promise card. Windows cannot read the drive on the
nvidia controller, so I had to use the promise card. The only issue is
unless your bios is pretty hardcore, it will boot as hde or higher. I
don't remembe
knowing the make & model of your current controller will be plenty enough
to answer that question. that can be found out by knowing the make &
model of the motherboard, if it is integrated. and that can be found out
by writing down the numbers on the boot init /mem test screen and googling
it
It does work with a Promise PCI Controller I don't know about the rest. We
use the WD 200GB in our security system DVR's with no problem.

Chances are it will work. Is the brand of the special PCI controller
Promise?
