My Toshiba 2GB PCMCIA hard drive (MK2001MPL/PA3079U) is not listed after boot, nor after a hotplug. There are two entries in dmesg, shown here:
"ata3.00: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x1) ata3: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 secs" and the two lines are repeated again after 5 secs. I am using the recent Feisty Beta LiveCD and it is the first time I have tried Ubuntu on my Laptop, a Toshiba A50-114. I am able to use this LiveCD on the laptop for most everything else, ( not tested everything yet). The output from uname -r is: 2.6.20-12-generic I have attached the outputs that are requested for hardware problems. This pcmcia hard drive still functions perfectly in XP and the fault is reproducible every time I boot with the LiveCD. ** Attachment added: "hardware logs" http://librarian.launchpad.net/6934597/Hardware%20Logs.txt -- PCMCIA hard disk drive not detected https://launchpad.net/bugs/83471 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
