the SMART check before install to disk is a nice feature.
The alert showed up that my drive might fail within the year.
Which is a new error I verified from a rescue CD boot up.
considering antiX is targeting older machine with older hard drives IDE PATA
would it be a added feature to have gsmartctl installed?
my antiX install will not allow gsmartctl to run for some reason.

The gsmartctl program has already been added to antiX-71.rc1_full and it seems to works there.
