Seeking Solution

["Hans-J. Ullrich" <hans.ullrich@loop.de>]

Hi all, 

today I am looking for a solution, which I submit is not real debian-amd-64 
related, but I hope, someone could help me.

Problem: I am running Debian sid on an amd64-notebook with scsi-drive.
The problem is, I cannot standby the drive with hdparm -S 1 /dev/sda. Well, it 
is shutting down after 5 seconds, but something is writing permanently to the 
drive so the drive is starting again.

I suppose it is a log file. O.k.,lsof is telling me  a lot of logfiles. Of 
course, I could stop all the logging, but this is not the way I want to. I 
want to stop only the logfile, which is responsible for the permannet 
writing.

So my question: How can I make Debian (Linux) to see, which file is written to 
the drive at the moment ?

Is there a way any ?

Best regards

Hans
