I am one of the victims of the bug described above. In fact, my neigbour is the victim: Ubuntu destroyed her Windows partition. I was trying to help her. That is more than a reason to turn people away from Linux. But what is written here above is another reason. It is perfectly incomprehensible.
For the sake of Ubuntu, may I once again recommend: - to add keywords of the bug description to indicate the affected versions (starting kernel X, fixed in Y) - to mark as important such things as data destruction, to tick "affects you" (and allow anyone to tick?) - in addition to "Bug description", to create a "Bug correction" in which any Ubuntu user can find in words he understands how to correct or circumvent his problem *in the system version he is using*. No "fixed", "patch released" or "upgrade" please. - in case the problem occurs with a particular hardware, to insistingly ask the manufacturers to indicate in their specifications "Supported OS: Linux kernel ≥ X or Ubuntu ≥ Y". It would have saved me days used to run tests, to find out the reason and the correction. And most of all, it would have saved my neighbour's disk !!! ** Summary changed: - Writing on a certain USB HDD causes corruption + (at least) USB id 14cd:6116 SATA Bridge M6116 chip causes HDD corruption -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1082215 Title: (at least) USB id 14cd:6116 SATA Bridge M6116 chip causes HDD corruption To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1082215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
