Hello,
I've currently a problem with my hard disk but I'm not sure that it is
really a problem. So, I'm asking you if it's really a problem and if
there are solutions or not. :-)
I've just made a backup of /home/ in case that is a problem with the
hard disk...
When I'm starting my desktop and it is starting on the kernel, here are
the logs[1].
I ask me if this message is a problem or not :
Aug 22 11:03:20 sithare kernel: hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x61
Aug 22 11:03:20 sithare kernel: hda: DMA timeout error
Aug 22 11:03:20 sithare kernel: hda: dma timeout error: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest
Aug 22 11:03:20 sithare kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Is it a problem ? Likewise, this slows the boot...
- I've made a control of the hard disk with the smartctl utility
(smartctl --test=long /dev/hda), see the result[2] :
- And with the hdparm utility[3].

What do you think about it?
Thank you,
Shams
