I have a peculiar situation:
	
When my FC1 boots up,it gives a message:
Starting smartd:                        [FAILED]

When it shuts down ,it gives message:
Stopping smartd:                 [FAILED]

Everything ,the desktop etc. works fine -there is no problem.But what is 
'smartd'  and why does it fail?
Thanks in advance.
