[ltp] Hard disk shutdown

[Ted Johansson]

T21 running MDK9.0, PCMCIA wlan network and usb-mouse. Automounting an 
nfs samba disk for my own file directory.

I am trying to have the hard disk stop after X min of inactivity. The 
computer is in the living room and often just left on for long time.

I changed from ext3 to ext2, added the "noatime" parameter in fstab, 
also tried noflush from sourceforge with 1 min (for testing purpose) 
timeout, but the disk still only stops for a few seconds. Same if I set 
a very short timeout using hdparm.

Any more suggested tricks to get this working?
