Bug#494660: Last argument in harddisks-variable in /etc/default/hdparm is always ignored
Package: hdparm Version: 8.9-1 I've setup several SATA disks in /etc/default/hdparm like this: harddisks=/dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd hdparm_opts=-W0 -S60 But the last harddisks-argument is always ignored. I tried removing sdd, but then sdc gets ignored and so on. When I configure them in /etc/hdparm.conf, then it does work. -- Ing.

I can't see why it would fail, and I've had no other repotrs of this for years, so I don't see why it would fail like this.

Now I (suddenly) see what's happing: +(525 /etc/default)# /etc/init.d/hdparm start ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Setting parameters of disc: setting standby to 60 (5 minutes) /dev/sda setting standby to 60 (5 minutes) /dev/sdb . The lines setting standby to are screwed up / the lines containing /dev/sda en /dev/sdb are not the same (although their settings are). So hdparm does apply the setting but the output of the init script is incorrect, are at least misleading -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

retitle 494660 hdparm: hdparm output messes up init script formatting severity 494660 wishlist thanks This one time, at band camp, Arno van Amersfoort said: Now I (suddenly) see what's happing: +(525 /etc/default)# /etc/init.d/hdparm start ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Setting parameters of disc: setting standby to 60 (5 minutes) /dev/sda setting standby to 60 (5 minutes) /dev/sdb .

So hdparm does apply the setting but the output of the init script is incorrect, are at least misleading Ah, that makes more sense. I have thought about swallowing the output from hdparm somehow to make the formatting nicer, but so far it hasn't been worth the effort to also report problems when they happen. Sorry this is annoying, I'll see what i can do.
