[PATCH 1/2] ide: Stop disks on reboot for laptop which cuts power

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My laptop (Acer Travelmate 660) always cuts the power when rebooting
which causes the disk to emergency-park it's head.

Add a dmi check to stop disk as for shutdown on this laptop.
