[ltp] noflushd

[Justin Georgeson]

I have 2 partitions with data, / and /boot, both formatted ext3. I 
installed noflushd and it did power down the driver, but within 5 
minutes it started a cycle of powering up and down with just a few 
minutes between each. I imagine this is bad for the drive so I disabled 
noflushd. I forget what I set the timeout to, but it was definitely 
between 5 and 15 minutes, so it seems like it was powering down to 
quickly. There are two things I have in consideration, reformatting 
(perhaps just remounting) with ext2 in case journaling is screwing with 
noflushd, and adding memory. Right now I'm running debian unstable using 
gnome, and only have 128 MB of memory, so it swaps quite a bit.
