So. I thought I was done setting this new server-thing up. But the main disk does suffer from the problem of not spinning down. I had decided to just ignore it. But it makes a small noise that somehow resonates in my ear and actually causes a slight headache after a few hours. So I found this tool that should be able to spin it down even though it is in some no-brand USB-enclosure: HD-IDLE http://hd-idle.sourceforge.net/ It needs "make" to install. I found and installed that from the extensions-repository. I navigate to the folder where I extracted the hd-idle source files (on the USB disk, not the SD card, I hope that doesn't matter) and type make. tc@S2:/mnt/Data/ServerFolders/Data/DL/HD-Idle-Src$ make cc -Wall -c -o hd-idle.o hd-idle.c make: cc: No such file or directory make: *** [<builtin>: hd-idle.o] Error 127 Error 127 is something about PATH. But some search results suggest that I'm missing a C compiler. In the extensions-repository I see something called compiletc. But I don't want to install it if it isn't right. I have a feeling that i'm burrying myself in a Linux world, even though I know I'm barely scratching the surface. I hope someone can help me get this installed. Of course ideally it would be nice to see it as part of the available extensions. But that is a bit far stretched, I know.
