In -current you get this: hw.sensors.69=sd0, ami0 0, drive online, OK hw.sensors.70=sd1, ami0 1, drive online, OK That is all that needs to be there. The idea is as follows: We will put enough sensor data there so that a sensor application can tell if something is ok or not, but then other tools must be used to get further information.
