So, I don't see an explicit START UNIT, but one of those ATA commands which I didn't decode could certainly trigger the wakeup. -- Rob -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
