-Which process is writing to disk?
+Which process is writing to disk and/or causes the disk to spin up?
+
+First of all use lsof to check what's going on. Does not help? ->
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/block_dump
-Warning: you must disable syslogd before you do this, or you must
-make sure that kernel output is not logged.
+The command sets a sysctl to cause the kernel to log all disk
+writes. Please notice that there is a lot of data. So please
+disable syslogd/syslog-ng before you do this, or you must make
+sure that kernel output is not logged.
When you're done, disable block dump using:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/block_dump
Alternative:
laptop-mode-tools provides a tool named lm-profiler (laptop mode profiler)
which handles block_dump on its own.
+
+See: $KERNEL-SOURCE/Documentation/laptop-mode.txt
+
+Also take a look at event-viewer(8) which is part of grml-debugtools.

Install initrd via initramfs-tools for currently running kernel:
# xfs_admin -l /dev/sda1
reiserfs without vol_id:
-# debugreiserfs /dev/sda1 | grep UUID
+# debugreiserfs /dev/sda1 | grep -i label
+
+jfs without vol_id:
+# jfs_tune -l /dev/sda1 | grep -i label
reiser4 without vol_id:
-# debugfs.reiser4 /dev/sda1 | grep uuid
+# debugfs.reiser4 /dev/sda1 | grep -i label
--
Check filesystem's UUID:
# vol_id -u /dev/sda1
ext2/3 without vol_id:

+Change a filesystem's LABEL:

+Configure timezone
+==================
+
+Available bootoptions relevant in live-cd mode:
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+* utc: set UTC, if your system clock is set to UTC (GMT)
+* gmt: set UTC, if your system clock is set to UTC (GMT) [like bootoption utc]
+* tz=$option: set timezone to corresponding $option, usage example:
+ tz=Europe/Vienna
+
+Configuration options relevant on harddisk installation:
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+* Use the tzconfig utility to set the local timezone:
+
+ # tzconfig
+
+ which adjusts /etc/timezone and /etc/localtime according
+ to the provided information. Running:
+
+ # dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
+
+ might be useful as well.
+
+* /etc/default/rcS: set variable UTC according to your needs,
+ whether your system clock is set to UTC (UTC='yes') or
+ not (UTC='no')
+
+* /etc/localtime: adjust zoneinfo according to your needs:
+
+ # ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/$WHATEVER_YOU_WANT /etc/localtime
+
+ The zoneinfo directory contains the time zone files that were
+ compiled by zic. The files contain information such as rules
+ about DST. They allow the kernel to convert UTC UNIX time into
+ appropriate local dates and times. Use the zdump utility to
+ print current time and date (in the specified time zone).
+
+* /etc/adjtime: This file is used e.g. by the adjtimex function,
+ which can smoothly adjust system time while the system runs
+
+* If you change the time (using 'date --set ...', ntpdate,...)
+ it is worth setting also the hardware clock to the correct time:
+
+ # hwclock --systohc [--utc]
+
+ Remember to add the --utc -option if the hardware clock is set
+ to UTC!
+
+Still problems?
+---------------
+
+Check your current settings via:
+
+ cat /etc/timezone
+ zdump /etc/localtime
+ echo $TZ
+ hwclock --show
+ grep hwclock /etc/runlevel.conf
+ grep '^UTC' /etc/default/rc
+
