There are 2 possibilities. The first is that the drive is bad. That's been the experience of a large number of people seeing that message. Quite a few others have found drives that Linux simply doesn't like. I was convinced that my drive was bad until I popped it into my Windows system where it's been working flawlessly for months. What makes these drives unusable I don't know. My server's running Red Hat Linux 7.1 but I think I remember seeing postings from people running other releases as well. If you can replace the drive, do so. If you want to pursue it, you may try posting to the ide list and see anybody there has any ideas. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@;ewilts.org Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
