Hi (again):
I diff'ed the contents of /proc/ide of Knoppix and Sarge, there were a couple of (possibly) interesting differences. I'm not sure how to go about changing the settings. The net/net is on my controller under knoppix it says UDMA Enabled but on Sarge it's disabled. Also the writecache is enabled under knoppix (I did a hdparm -W 1 /dev/hda, but my tests were identical)
Below are the diffs, I'd like to make the sarge install setting identical, and see if that changes anything.
If anyone knows how to alter these settings, I'd be appreciated
thanks Jay
