Description Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-03-24 10:29:33 UTC 
When run as a daemon, hddtemp needs to call setsid() to switch to a new session. Otherwise, when /sbin/init uses a tty other than /dev/tty, hddtemp will be killed at the end of the system boot-up. This can happen when CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 or similar is added to the kernel command line.
