Hello,

I have a little problem with hdd speed. I can't enable DMA use with
unattended Linux. 
If I try to overwrite my disk using the 'dd' command, it takes 3.5 hours for
40 GB of disk size.
In the hdd parameters I have enabled the io_32bit setting
'/proc/ide/had/settings' to a value of 1. After this change I have reduced
the time for 1.5 Hours. But I can not enable DMA mode for this drive. How
can I fix this? Can somebody put the hdparm command to the Linux install
disk? 
If I try to overwrite the disk with a DOS tool I need up to 30 minutes.

Is it possible to implement a unattended switch in the unattend.txt file,
that performs a low Level Format befor starting the installation?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind Regards
Guido Reimer
