Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 Version: 2.6.26+15
I run debian testing on my eee pc 701. The box has one sd slot, and I have a transcend 16Gb sd card on it. When the card was new and empty, the system would boot with no problems with the card inside the slot. However, after I started writing to it, when I boot the system, it halts after udev starts with a read error on the card, and a hard boot is required. If I boot without the card in, everything goes fine. My first guess was a bad sd card. I reformated it, used badblocks -w on it, and no problems were found. After the card was formated (and empty), the system would boot without problems. However, as soon as I started writing to it, when I reboot I get the same read errors again. If, however, I plug the card after system boot, I can use it without problems. I just tried to read it all to make sure: gapski at revo:~$ dd bs=1024 if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null 15694336+0 records in 15694336+0 records out 16071000064 bytes (16 GB) copied, 967.822 s, 16.6 MB/s A later post on the debian eeepc mailing list seems to identify the issue and point to a patch: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-eeepc-devel/2008-August/000829.html Can this patch be included into debian kernels? regards, Pedro -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
