Does anyone know if there is a way to make the harddrive spindown on
Yellowdog? I'm running 2.0 on a rev. A iMac and it's loud.

I've heard of something called hdparm, which can be configured to make the
drive spindown after a certain amount of innactivity, but it doesn't seem
to be included with the YDL2.0 distro (the Home/Office install, at least).

  Thanks,
Carl
