I have ata100 drive and and in grub I have ide0=noautotune idebus=100

On bootI see the message assuming ide33 overriding with with idebusxxx.  So I 
assume it is recognizing the ata100 controll.  BTW it is an Intel 815e MB.

Now when I run hdparm -c -d -k /dev/hda I get

I/O suport = 0 (16-bit)
using_dma = 0 (off)
keepsettings = (0) off

I run hdparm -c1 -d1 -k1 /dev/hda

I get the same as below, and all testing of the drive by moving files and 
etc, everything seems ok. But when I reboot, the hard drive resets everything 
back to off.  I thought the hdparm -k1 /dev/hda was supposed to save the 
settings?  Is there a way to make it save these setting with out editing an 
init script, if not which script to I add it do rc.local? sysinit?

Thanks,

Jerry
