Hi RaghuNath
Could you post relevant portion of /etc/rc.d/rc.local? There may be a problem of
executing
commands in the file itself.
Check file permissions. Also try redirecting the output of hdparm to a file. Check
whether
the file get generated with proper contents.

P.S. You hdd is enviable fast. That rate is above 55MB/s where as my 10.2GB quantum
does not
go beyond 32MB/12MBps.. Anyway IBM drive of my company machine does give me 113MBps...
It's
blazing...
