Hijack v490 is now released.

New in this version, is support for the SG_IO ioctl() call for use with SAT Passthru commands. This means that the empeg kernel now supports nearly all of the functionality of modern versions of hdparm.

In conjunction with the v490 release, I am attaching here a pre-built binary of hdparm-8.6+, with all functions enabled. This is a pre-release snapshot of the upcoming hdparm-8.7 code.

Nearly all hdparm functions should now work with Hijack v490 or later, including the --make-bad-sector and --repair-sector flags (tested), as well as all of the security functions (untested), such as --security-erase (aka. "low-level format").

Enjoy
