Maybe you could add an installation option
such as lazy read/write on disk.
This option would use hdparm to set delays.

Thanks for the new acpi support!

I would like an small optimization:
more hard disk sleeps.

If I let my comptuter for 1 hour,
hard disk sleeps.
I don't know if it is controlled
by my BIOS or not.

In all case, I think
we could tweak disk accesses:
- when writing, only write to cache without writing on disk
- when reading, only read from cache and if we can not, read from disk

If we can act on this,
reduce the sleep timeout of the hard disk.
I saw that we can not tweak 'kupdated' periods.
Is there a mean to set this period ?
