Copy Protection using Serial Numbers (SCSI Disk / Processor / BIOS / Mainboard)
#/sbin/hdparm -i /dev/hda
Provides information on Hard Disk Drive /dev/hda including the serial number.
Does anyone have any idea of getting those serial numbers using C?

Ohh..I was talking about the Serial Numbers of SCSI Disk / Processor / BIOS / Mainboard.
hdparm 5.3 does not support scsi, and what about processor/BIOS/Mainboard ?

hi zahidbd,
I'm not a programmer. But looking at your requirement, maybe you might want to look at the standard header file in (if you could use that in your code).
/usr/include/linux/genhd.h
cheers.
ps. I think you had another similar question in C programming area.

Hi!
Ok, you didn't ask for SCSI or mainboard or BIOS in question, you jsut said /dev/hda which is primary ide hd.
You will most likely get more answers if asking in programming area and better ones, :)

I recommend PAQ, refund. The asker did not get quite the answer they wanted, but the responses are worth keeping around (even if some of them are duplicated in the cross-referenced question).

Why not getting the source code for hdparm and check yourself, it is after all an open source OS, :)
In redhat go to any ftp site that has the RH distrib.
Go into os/i386/SRPMS dir and download hdparm-x.x.x.src.rpm.
Do rpm -ivh hdparm-x.x.x.src.rpm, now a gzipped tar file will reside in /usr/src/redhat
You might also find it on:
www.freshmeat.net, but I'm not sure.
