Ok, here we go - test with linux-image-2.6.24. 1) I tested with daily Live CD 01-08-2008 (2.6.24-2-generic), it loaded ok, then I tried to select partitions on disk on that controller and format them. Result was total freeze which I could end only with reset. Freeze started slowly, as box were getting overwhelmed by malicious data. After reboot I got borked GRUB at MBR, as it seems tried to write partition table and failed. I have to mention that Live CD with Gutsy kernel, it also crashed, but it didn't succeed in writing anything in hard disk. See dmesg attached for Live CD dmesg with information about devices;
2) Then I tried your suggested method in last comment. I got linux-image-2.6.24-3-generic. Result is: * Slower reading, as mentioned. However, it didn't crash or stopped, I can boot it all the time. Just slowly reading and writing, andwriting is also ok, no bad data or freeze; * Strange errors from CD-ROM device (/dev/hdc), which could be part of problems. For example, when I booted in kernel, message about CD with data and music appeared, however there was no CD in device. Also attached dmesg-hardy-hdd.txt for dmesg dump; I can do any other tests, as I leave this kernel installed for now. Just tell me what you need. ** Attachment added: "dmesg-hardy.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11221102/dmesg-hardy.txt -- SATA disk attached to HPT371N controler is very slow or don't work at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162006 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
