This setting has to be also set manually somewhere in some config file I would think. Anyone know which config file this may be?
/etc/sysconfig/ide. You can also just put the hdparm command line in /etc/rc.d/boot.local (you can fine tune it more this way) which is what I do.

I have already responded to the above, but I have just been doing a bit of looking-around and must now state, "Hang on, something not quite kosher here" :-) I have a 2nd computer with sus 10 installed and there the UDMA for the HDs and the opticals are shown correctly. I just had a look at the /etc/sysconfig/ide file and it has zilch in it- not a sausage, no parameters set. So, the dma has to be set/configured elsewhere otherwise sus 10 couldn't come up with the correct UDMA settings in yast/hardware/ide dma. Any clues where this other place could be? :-). Anyone? Cheers. -- In a period of great joy and pleasure you are comforted by the thought that tragedy is just around the corner.
