DISK ERROR??
Hi
I have a small network attached storage (NAS) linux. when it
boots up, there is a bit error from kernel message:
3ata1: translated ATA stat/err 0x58/00 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/47/00
4ata1: status=0x50 { DriveReady SeekComplete }
4ata1: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
3ata2: translated ATA stat/err 0x58/00 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/47/00
4ata2: status=0x50 { DriveReady SeekComplete }
4ata2: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
Is this disk error, a serious problem or can be ignored? if it is
serious, this device is under warranty, I can contact manufacturer.
Besides this error message, the system seems working. How to check
heath of disks?
Thanks
Y

50/04 is a command being issued to the drive which it then decides it
doesn't understand the meaning of. That should never happen and might
indicate either a bug in the kernel handling of commands or a device that
claims things it cannot do. Shouldn't be a worry but hdparm information
for the device would be helpful.
Besides this error message, the system seems working. How to check

smartutils does this, however this doesn't look remotely like that sort
of problem.
Please send me the output of hdparm -I for that device.

OK - that answers one question. Now the question of whether you have a good burn. Let's start with the download. Did you follow the instructions at http://fedoraproject.org/en/verify before burning? And did you tell xcdroast to verify the burn? One last question. Considering that you said it was an old laptop, have you ever done an install from a DVD on that laptop before?

Re: Disk error
It looks like that it is a problem with the DVD reader, bit it is bizard because I can mount the DVD with an installed linux by using the same reader !

That's not bizarre, it's just unlucky. Mounting the DVD only requires reading a few sectors. Howver it could fail at some random future time if anything tries to read a bad block. Another potential cause is that the DVD itself is fine but the reader can't seek as far as it needs to when doing the install. And BTW *please* don't top-post! See how I replied below your message? See how it makes it easier to read? poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

[other operating system] linux is critical about hardware. but if linux had support of oem's it would be more of a breeze as is oos. but, in long run, you will be happier with linux and in time find that it really is a better system. later. - -- tc,hago. g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Red Hat - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIlj3D+C4Bj9Rkw/wRAkOZAJ9WWhkvi8T/JqKS4pLM+DVkHk/w9ACffL+I xObUM47Ds477KzKlYW+Ktm4= =SsBo -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

I guess it does both not good to guess. see below. if you have k3b on both systems, do 'read' specs compare? No, I do not have k3b would be good to install. does a better job of letting you know about what drive can do. I probably have some problem with the DVD reader, and I should have you can replace with a decent 16x burner for around $50.00 that works with most +/- and most will burn dvd +r. btw. now that you are into 'inline' posting, deleting 'history' is a good thing to do. this also make messages easier to follow. - -- tc,hago. g . in a free world without fences, who needs gates. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Red Hat - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIlkyG+C4Bj9Rkw/wRAiG+AKC1E613opnoEzUXSMVi5LR46msrowCfSlgO gWcup07GzD2HG5O/hBBDi38= =HATz -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

You're thinking of prerecorded DVD movies, and the problem isn't the physical sector but the deliberately incorrect index information in some video files. Note that DVD drives in PCs can play these movies perfectly well. This has nothing to do with the case in hand, which is of a non-DRM DVD data image recorded by the user. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
