what would be considered good settings?
here are mine...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda1

/dev/sda1:
Timing cached reads:   1452 MB in  2.00 seconds = 725.51 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads:  126 MB in  3.04 seconds =  41.45 MB/sec

how does this compare?

I thought it was better to use sdparm for SATA as SATA support in hdparm
was quite limited (it may have changed...)
another option is to use blktool (both IDE and SATA)

either way, it would be nice to have safe optimizations in the liveCD as
well... and to have some doc on this on the wiki too :)

ok lets collect some experiences here and i'll research some of the tools and do the wiki doc

calling all disk optimisation experiences... calling all disk optimisation experiences...

lets have em...

Can I confuse postings a little and ask where and how to save the settings
from 'hdparm'?  The drive speed increase is huuuuge.
presuming you have hdparm installed... (sudo aptitude install hdparm)

you need to add your settings to the .conf file

sudo nano /etc/hdparm.conf
