Hello. I have good quality 1 TB USB Hard Disk, that came with FAT32 file system and driver for the commercial OS. I did not care about changing this file system, and along some time it worked without error message. When removing safely, I have now this message: «Unable to stop drive Error detaching: helper exited with exit code 1: Detaching device /dev/sdb USB device: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb2/2-2) SYNCHRONIZE CACHE: OK STOP UNIT: FAILED: No such file or directory»
However, I can clearly hear that the disk stops, and I also hear it start to run when I wish so; obviously, the message can be ignored. I wonder if the disk file system is, or not, totally irrelevant for the optimum disk operation under Linux. -- secure remove of external USB-HDD produces error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/466575 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
