Alan: My Eee 900 is bricked. I have dd'ed zeroes over the SSD several times, and while I am no longer getting HSM-violations (since I am using a 8.04 rescue image), I now get Buffer I/O errors galore on the device. A full dd takes roughly 12 hours (that's the 16 gig drive) due to all these errors, and have no effect on them. I have dd'ed it probably three or four times now, and there's no apparent improvement.
I have given up and purchased a 1008HA with a regular disk on it instead. That works like a charm, though. In other news: Eee 900 with 2G RAM for sale. :) -- devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
