IMO, it would be good for someone at least to look at the logs and dumps I've put here before closing this. It's going to be impossible for me to reproduce this, but it was *definitely* a system-eater. 1TB of really important data (the system was used for videography) gone. :( ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Expired = Opinion ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Opinion = Incomplete -- 10.04 LiveCD (USB-ified with usb-creator) decided to use an existing HDD partition for swap. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/607006 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

Hi Dan, If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message.

Hi Jeremy, I might need a bit of hand-holding to get the kernel installed since the issue is with a boot-CD environment that's been moved onto a USB drive. I'm thinking of chrooting into it from another system and using normal apt as per instructions above, then just overwriting the ubuntu kernel with a copy of the upstream one (since as far as I know there's no GRUB menu for picking kernels when I boot from the USB). Would that, dirty hack as it may be, work well enough? Would I need to overwrite the initrd too? Note: I have to finish doing backups (using photorec over 1TB array is a *slow* process), troubleshoot the drive that died, rebuild+reinstall, and get the machine back to its owner by Sunday, and I'm travelling today and tomorrow -- so the window of time for doing experiments is extremely limited. What sort of other information should I grab? (e.g. I could try and tar up /sys, /etc, /var/log, etc... there's not much privileged info on this machine so I can be verbose, but I want to make sure I get the useful stuff.) -- 10.04 LiveCD (USB-ified with usb-creator) decided to use an existing HDD partition for swap. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/607006 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

N.b: the system I submitted the bug from is NOT the one that had the corruption/swap issue -- that one is churning away with what I hope is a semi-intact backup. -- 10.04 LiveCD (USB-ified with usb-creator) decided to use an existing HDD partition for swap. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/607006 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
