Hi,
I proposed this patch on the forum but there was not much attention there. So
maybe this list is more appropriate.
In my system I have a bunch of SATA disks that are handled as SCSI devices by
the Linux kernel. As a consequence, in the fdisk module these disks don't get
the "IDE parameter" or "SMART" links.
The patch below allows these links to be enabled for these disks. I guess
the "IDE parameter" link is more questionable as not all IDE options are
available on SATA. However this is working well enough for me.
I may have missed some implication with RAID devices and such but I don't have
any to test with.
Comments are welcome.
JC
