        Is autotune (as in the argument to BootX) or "hdparm -p" known
        to be OK for:

        1. PowerBook G3 (Lombard)
        2. PowerMac 6500/300

        ? The reason I ask is because the man page for hdparm includes:

                Use with extreme caution! This feature
                includes zero protection for the unwary, and an
                unsuccessful outcome may result in severe
                filesystem corruption!

        for the -p option.

        - Paul
