Run the command hdparm -t -v /dev/hda(check man pages for
options). Without the -d flag to set DMA , my DMA 33 drive tested at about
3MB/sec read speed. With the dma set -on, my speed jumps to about 17 to 18
MB/sec for reads. You can set other options to try for m
In order to get supermount to open my CDRW I had to
edit the fstab file so the
line for this device ends with dev=/dev/scd0. Because
lilo.conf appends
"hdc=ide-scsi" the CDRW has to be accessed as a scsi
device.
