Hi everyone, I wounder which setting might be optimal for the 2.2er Ibook .. I am currently using testing with the 2.4.22-benh2 kernel (great work, by the way). I've tried a few setting but I thing I still did not find the optimum .. these are my current settings: /sbin/hdparm -c 1 -m 16 -p 4 -B 1 /dev/hda /sbin/hdparm -d 0 -p 4 -X mdma2 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target1/lun0/generic Greetings, Albrecht
