[Cooker] 32 bit i/o for hard drive

[bobby dowling]

I am trying to change the 16 bit i/o seetings for my hard drive to 32 bit to 
drive to speed up access with the following command:

hdparm -c 1 -d 1 /dev/hde (I have ata/66 drives working on hde/hdg)

I wait a good 5 minutes and nothing ...just hangs, but I can close the 
x-terminal.

Any ideas here/

BTW, I got this tweak tip from:
