[Bug 266951] Re: Buffer I/O error on device sr0 Logical Block XXXXXX in Intrepid Ibex Alpha 5

2008-11-11 Thread zenit
I have done some more testing, and as you say DVD-s work fine. My
previous cdr-s were burnt with wodim 1.1.2 (debian etch) and wodim
1.1.8. This time I tried adding -dao option to wodim, and guess what,
now the cds boot fine and give me no errors during mount. However, since
I also experienced error with some factory made cds (not all) and also
with a cd burnt with ISO recorder Powertoy in windows, then I still
suspect that the cd-rom driver being the culprit. I'm not sure though,
but I'm happy with the workaround for the time being.

I did some more testing today on the SH-S203P drive. I did both a BIOS
upgrade, tried to to experiment with setting SATA to compatible mode in
BIOS and disabling memory remapping. Also tried to boot with acpi=off
noapic nolapic nohz=off pci=nomsi settings (and a combination of those),
but it didn't help. If a cd is in the drive during boot, this error
occurs once the "Uniform cd-rom driver Revision: 3.20" is loaded and
then it has to timeout to go further.

If I try to mount a cd-rom, the error occurs at once:
Nov 10 17:53:14 pluto kernel: [  909.054544] sr 4:0:0:0: [sr0] Result:

Nov 10 17:53:14 pluto kernel: [  909.054560] Buffer I/O error on device sr0, 
logical block 167101

Then it goes on for about a minute or so:
Nov 10 17:54:32 pluto kernel: [  986.849538] Buffer I/O error on device sr0, 
logical block 167101

But after that the drive settles, it's mounted and all the contents can
be copied over at full speed with no problems at all. I have noticed
that the errors also occur with factory printed cds, but also here the
contents can be copied over at full speed once the drive settles:

But if I insert a factory printed DVD, everything works with no errors
at all! Tried with different DVDs. Yesterday I installed 8.10 server
from a burnt mini iso, and although I had to wait with patience to wait
for a timeout everytime the drive was accessed, the install completed.

If you want me to perform any more testing, just tell me. It would be
nice to get this resolved.


** Description changed:

  Hello everyone.
  
  When I run Intrepid Ibex Alpha 5 in my Compaq Presario C708LA the system
  operative not start. I don't have logs because the system repeat the
  same mistake.
  
  I attached photos of the error and I don't know with precision the

I just rebooted the computer with the Samsung SH-S183A drive, and it
gives me the same medium error with the same sectors. This computer has
another Asus motherboard, althoug it's Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe, so it's
entirely different. Yes, this happens on different cdr-media. I find it
higly unlikely that both drives are defective and that 8 cd's fail.

The error is more or less like this:
sr 4:0:0:0: [sr0] Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE,SUGGEST_OK
sr 4:0:0:0: [sr0] Sense Key : Medium Error [current]
 Info fld=0x0
sr 4:0:0:0: [sr0] Add. Sense: L-EC uncorrectable error
end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 1336808
Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 167101

I noticed that this bug is marked for Alpha 5 of Intrepid, but the
errors occur in the release. Should it be tagged differently?

I'm experiencing the same kind of errors while trying to install Ubuntu
8.10 release. I have tried both i386 and amd64. The issue occurs during
boot from the cd, and no matter what I do I get a medium error with
error messages exactly as those draimus listed. I have tried differend
media, different burning speed, it doesn't help. Media always burns
fine, and I have no problems mounting the burnt cd-media in 8.04 and
copying all the content. It's during boot that the problem arises, and
it's always the same sector that's listed.

I have two different Samsung drives, the one that gives med the error is
SH-S203P. Tried burning a cdr i the SH-S183A, and then booting in the
second one, same error same sector. I'm probably going to try a dvd-r
this time, and check what happens. I find it very strange. My
motherboard is Asus Formula Rampage with the X48 chipset, if it matters.
Both DVD burners are SATA.
