[Bug 1653162] Re: System won't boot after upgrade to 16.04 with 4.4.0 kernel

2017-07-27 Thread Daniel A. Gauthier
Forgot to add I think it was either 4.0.1 or 4.1.0 that broke it, if I remember right. This bug is linked to my earlier one somehow, but I don't know how to point you there. I got the system running by removing a package like "linux-kernel-generic" which depends on the current version and then in

As far as I know, this is still a current issue. It has nothing to do with Ubuntu, it's a mainline kernel problem. I was working with someone earlier this year and after tracing it to a specific commit (I believe the same one that added "4k" sector support), I was sent somewhere else and kinda dro

The problem still exists in 4.7.0rc3 and rc4, along with a few new messages I've never seen before: At boot, on screen (slowly twice) before X is up: "AAC: Host adapter dead -1" (at modprobe perhaps) This message seemed to predict the comlete lack of an sdb device, only the SATA laptop hard drive

I have bisected the source of the bug, then took a brief attempt at a fix, unfortunately the quickie fix failed (bad CONST definitions in an .h file). I thought perhaps it was some kind of memory region locking error causing corruption, but it appears to be more complicated than that. The bad com
