Subject: HD errors on Linux 2.4.23, but not on W2K
Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2003 08:43:35 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200312221343.IAA22752@grex.cyberspace.org> (raw)
I have a MAXSTOR 6L040J2 40 Gb drive that under kernel 2.4.23
is giving me { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } { UncorrectableError }
every two sectors when I try to access it (a simple hdparm -t /dev/hda)
will do. I tried disable DMA, etc., etc., even chaning to 2.6.0, but
still those errors persists.
Usually this is a sign of old age, bad HD, etc but the strangest
thing is that this is a W2K machine (I'm booting via NFS root here)
and it works like a charm. Not a single burp, even when copying
files around.
A surface scan by CHKDSK doesn't find anything.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
H9
