[Bug 82314] Re: pata driver in libata not mounting /home
The update this morning is exactly what -broke- my machine in the first place. By the way, my drive is not a Western Digital Sata as I believed, but rather a Hitachi PATA drive, that seems to be mounted via a scsi interface. I don't plan to do any more kernel updates until I see positive feedback in bug #106063. -- pata driver in libata is thwarted by HPA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

To the last comment, yeah downloading a livecd should allow you to chroot to your drive and fix the kernel issues by downgrading the kernel version. If you want to be mad at someone ultimately you can direct it towards Linus Torvalds / Allen Cox. I stumbled upon a thread or two with them discussing these sorts of issues. I ~guess~ they aren't the ones that applied whatever this f-ed up patch is and deployed it to us as a ~minor~ kernel update but oh well...I hope they fix it soon. -- pata driver in libata not mounting /home https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/82314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is _REALLY_ fucked up. Been debian experimental / unstable user for years, switched to ubuntu and after few weeks such problems.

[Bug 82314] Re: pata driver in libata not mounting /home
Ok, I booted -11, but the affected drive is driven by normal ide drivers, not by libata. How can I tell it that it should use libata instead? (possibly in a way that can be easily reverted in case of problems). -- pata driver in libata not mounting /home https://launchpad.net/bugs/82314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 82314] Re: pata driver in libata not mounting /home
The disk isn't detected, there's no way I can grab the dmesg... The latest update doesn't work either, just -9. The grub keyboard issues make it suboptimal to change kernel at boot (most of the times the keyboard doesn't work). I get the following errors: ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x20CF ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x20CF ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x20CF ata1.01: qc timeout (cmd 0x27) ata1.01: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40) ata1.01: limiting speed to PIO0 ata1: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 secs ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x20CF ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x20CF ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x20CF ata1.01: qc timeout (cmd 0x27) ata1.01: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40) ata1.01: disabled ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x20C7 Then drops to a shell on the initramfs.

Since -10 I became unable to boot a MacBook C2D with ata abnormal status errors, could it be related to any of this?

2.6.20-10 contains "beta" quality HPA support for libata. Please give it a test by booting it, and look for "Host Protected Area detected." If you're feeling brave, boot with "libata.ignore_hpa=1" to disable the host protected area (which should enable your whole disk). Please attach dmesg whether it was successful or not. Thanks!

Herd 6 should contain preliminary HPA support, will follow up closer to the release. In the mean time, you can blacklist the libata modules in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist to revert to using the drivers/ide modules. ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => In Progress Target: None => herd-5 -- pata driver in libata not mounting /home https://launchpad.net/bugs/82314 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Not a problem in a sense that my computer is usable.
