Hi Cyrille, I read your post on Ubuntu LaunchPad and I wanted to say that I get the same error (Error 21) when I set my SATA mode to IDE in BIOS. I have 5 drives connected to the ICH8R controller and 2 DVD-ROMs on the JMicron Controller. Additionally, I see a "Cannot write to disk..." message. My solution is to keep the SATA in AHCI mode.
I hope that helped a bit. Sincerely, Victor Petrov -- JMicron PATA/SATA Controller does not work https://launchpad.net/bugs/57502 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
