Adds dependency upon smartmontools's binary smartctl to query the block devices via ATA mode which fails on pass-thru buses such as ATA over SCSI and ATA over USB, in an effort to prevent the initiation of ATA secure erase with one of these interfaces in place which may render the disk unreachable after security options are enabled for ATA Secure Erase or upon the Secure Erase command being sent to the Hard Disk.

fixes:
|
|
- |
|
|
Adds an additional check if the ``smartctl`` utility is present from the
|
|
``smartmontools`` package, which performs an ATA disk specific check that
|
|
should prevent ATA Secure Erase from being performed if a pass-thru
|
|
device is detected that requires a non-ATA command signling sequence.
|
|
Devices such as these can be `smart` disk interfaces such as
|
|
RAID controllers and USB disk adapters, which can cause failures
|
|
when attempting to Secure Erase, which may render the disk unreachable.
