[Bug 223235] Re: ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute
This is a not a problem any longer with 2.6.27. But I think it should be fixed in the LTS. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New = Fix Released -- ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223235 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 223235] Re: ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute
The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223235 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Another workaround that seems to have less negative side effects is adding ata_piix to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules. -- ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223235 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Unfortunately, all_generic_ide seems to reduce performance drastically. Everything disk intensive (update-manager, firefox, etc) becomes really slow. Seems like top reports a lot of hi time (hardware interrupts?). I have thus gone back to the default, slow booting. -- ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223235 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 223235] Re: ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute
I haven't tested it, but would this be related? http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/30055 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9491 ata_piix when attached to ICH6M in AHCI mode doesn't provide any benefit over using ahci and has detection problems. Don't let ata_piix claim ICH6M if it's in AHCI mode. This change makes ICH6R the only one which ata_piix can attach to even when it's in ahci mode which is necessary as some devices don't work properly under ahci mode. Drop PIIX_FLAG_AHCI and match the controller directly so that piix_disable_ahci() is called only for it. This change makes PIIX_SCC no longer used and it gets dropped too. This fixes bz 9491. -- ata probing delays booting by 1/2 minute https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223235 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
