I'm using RH 8 with 2 HDs, one is just additional storage mounted on a dir in /home and this spins down when it has not been used for a while and back up when required, as intended. But the other drive which contains the full OS (only this one HD when installed) and whatever I do with hdparm I cannot make it stay asleep. If I tell hdparm to spin it down now (cannot remember the actual command) it does stop but immediately starts back up again.
I'm using a USB keyboard, could this be the problem? If not, what else can force the HD to spin up again like this?
Any ideas much appreciated.
