hdparm -d1 /dev/hdb
UDMA2 was 'on' by default for the DVD-ROM.
The video and audio playback is improved but DVD playback is still skipping
frames and audio is 'clicking' and it's slightly out of sync with the video
during playback.
I think the DVD decoding is too demanding on my 600 Mhz CPU.
Since top is reporting near 100% CPU usage during playback.
What config file do I add my hdparm command to so it sets the DVD-ROM to
UDMA2 at boot up? Thanks!
