or apt-get update & apt-get upgrade

thanks for assistance with this one !

It seems to work. Thanks a lot. But one last question: when were this fix released?

after you provided relevant debug info as we spoke

It's a common problem with WD drives (that's why i never use them) called tler. Does this work:

I am having the same problem as feg with my 2tb wd elements disk.
I jus want to point out that I tried openelec (which is also an xbmc rpi distro) and the spinup does not occur on openelec. So i believe this proves that the problem is not the harddisk but the xbian software.
I disabled all services that i could on xbian and it still occures. I even unmounted the drive and xbian wakes it up even unmounted. This is strange, really. What could be causing this?

@streppuiu

what is your xbian-package-usbmount package version?

I ran the command, it returned:

xbian-package-usbmount 1.0.5

After that I ran apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and got the 1.0.5-5 version of that package, then I tried again but the by-itself-spinup still happens.
