The patch before, I told it always boots but the last two days I had much difficulties to boot. It was hard resetting and waiting a couple of times before bailing out with no mountable root FS. One time it was switched off three hours and the next time overnight, I powercyced a couple of times. If I am the only one experiencing this difficulties (am I the only one with this chipset/revision reporting?), shouldn't we consider this machine... broken? I change SATA cables from time to time, but these seem all to be okay. I mean, if it is really _that_ strange...

I fetched 2.6.27 now and tried this patch. A short powercycle, reboot wasn't a problem yesterday, this morning also not, so looks well so far, tihs is how /var/log/messages looks now: Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sata_nv 0000:00:0a.0: version 3.5 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LTID] enabled at IRQ 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sata_nv 0000:00:0a.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LTID] -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sata_nv 0000:00:0a.0: setting latency timer to 64 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa scsi0 : sata_nv Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa scsi1 : sata_nv Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf80 ctl 0xf00 bmdma 0xd800 irq 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xe80 ctl 0xe00 bmdma 0xd808 irq 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: hard resetting link Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: EH complete Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: hard resetting link Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa XXX CLASSIFY 01:00:00 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2.00: ATA-7: SAMSUNG HD753LJ, 1AA01106, max UDMA7 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2.00: 1465149168 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: EH complete Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa isa bounce pool size: 16 pages Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa scsi 1:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA SAMSUNG HD753LJ 1AA0 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] 1465149168 512-byte hardware sectors (750156 MB) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Write Protect is off Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] 1465149168 512-byte hardware sectors (750156 MB) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Write Protect is off Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 < sda5 sda6 sda7 sda8 sda9 > Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sd 1:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk Kind Regards, Konsti -- GPG KeyID EF62FCEF Fingerprint: 13C9 B16B 9844 EC15 CC2E A080 1E69 3FDA EF62 FCEF -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
