1. Download .pet package.
2. Click LMB to install.
3. Open terminal and write:
for quick info, or
for more detailed info stored in folder where you started hdsentinel command. So if you opened terminal via desktop icon your report.txt file will be saved into /root.

Could you please give a short description of what Hard Disk Sentinel does? You're not selling it very well.

I'm to lazy. Besides there is a link to official info and Fabrice HDD report. I'm only whistblower. I've found a tool and wanted to share.
There is 255 users who read this topic and only 17 who downloaded my .pet. So maybe only 17 users need this tool.
Or they donwloaded similar stuff from Mike Walsh topic.

I downloaded the 64 bit version from the website.
All I had to do was unzip it and put it in usr/local/bin and then run it from the console.
It says my hard drives are doing fine.

I was messing up little with gxmessage and G4D lately, so:
I. You can use DOS version of HD Sentinel with G4D:
Info:
https://www.hdsentinel.com/hard_disk_sentinel_dos.php
1) Download CD ISO version:
https://www.hdsentinel.com/hdsdos/hdsdos_cd.zip
2) Unzip downloaded .zip archive and put hdsdos.iso to your G4D partition into eg. hds folder.
2) Add to your G4D menu.lst this:
Code: Select all
title Hard Disk Sentinel (DOS)
find --set-root /hds/hdsdos.iso
map /hds/hdsdos.iso (0xff) || map --mem /hds/hdsdos.iso (0xff)
map --hook
chainloader (0xff)
II. I've made .pets with 32&64bit versions with gui and jwm menu entry:
hdsentinel-gui
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
options=$(echo -e "Quick - quick report\nFull - more detailed report with S.M.A.R.T parameters")
gxmessage -center -title "Choose option" -name "Hard Disk Sentinel" -buttons "QUICK:10,FULL:20" "$options"
if [[ $? -eq 10 ]]
then
gxmessage -geometry 1900 -center -wrap -fn Monospace -title "Hard Disk Sentinel for LINUX console 0.17.8556 (c) 2016 info@hdsentinel.com" -name "Hard Disk Sentinel" "$(hdsentinel | grep -A 100 HDD)"
else
gxmessage -geometry 1900 -center -wrap -fn Monospace -title "Hard Disk Sentinel for LINUX console 0.17.8556 (c) 2016 info@hdsentinel.com" -name "Hard Disk Sentinel" "$(hdsentinel -dump -r)"
fi

Installed the pet file.
Ran the program.
All good with my [internal] HDD.
I'll now save the session changes, to keep the program installed.

FYI
I installed the 32-bit pet = hdsentinel-0.17.8556.pet
Into a 32-bit Puppy = Slacko-5.7-pae
Running on 64-bit hardware.

I too got that error, when I tried the 32-bit version.
http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=582 ... 8473749806
So I renamed the pet.
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1302108 Dec 23 09:33 /mnt/sdb2/Downloads/hdsentinel-0.17.8556.pet
Then it installed.
In musher0's Xenial 7.0.6 (32-bit)
cat .packages/hdsentinel-0.17.8556.files
/usr/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/applications/
/usr/share/applications/Pdisk-partition-manager.desktop
/usr/bin/

The status of the solid state disk is PERFECT. Problematic or weak sectors were not found.
The health is determined by SSD specific S.M.A.R.T. attribute(s): #202 Percentage Of The Rated Lifetime Used
No actions needed.
Why is the 'Health' 97%?
Thanks,
Sheldon

Read the info at the bottom of the report.
It tells you what is used to determine health.

I don't know why some people gets errors. I've don't tested 64bit version because i don't have 64bit chip.
Maybe because of wrong .desktop file name? Should be:
or something similar.
With wrong named .deskop file you will lose Pdisk from menu. But you can still use it from console:
