Hi I found that this problem is also not connected with copying from ATA disk. Today I tried to copy 11GB by scp in local network an got the same, repeatable hangup (once after 1GB, once after 6.3GB). This time the memory usage was normal and no swap was being used. It looks like problem with writing/communicating with hard drive (brand new HDD seagate 750GB ST3750528AS ext4 partition). I ran fsck on this disk with no errors detected
I see 2 possibilities 1. The disk is broken (but why should system hang after copying succesfuly so much data) 2. The ubuntu driver for p5qc are broken somewhere 3. The ext4 system is broken Is there any way to check if the disk is OK? I will now to write the same data on the other disk (NTFS) and we'll see -- Ubuntu hangs up from time to time when I try to copy files from ATA NTFS to SATA ext4 partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390204 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
