similar to: raid 1 problem

I wrote a bunch of files to a backup DVD about two months ago and now neither of my drives will read it. I get mount errors from "not a directory" to something like "unrecognized file system type" and so on, usually after a really long wait and a notice about how the drive is write-protected (duh). Here's what happened most recently: # mount /dev/hdc /mnt mount: block

I am running RH 7.3 with kernel 2.4.18-27.7.x. Recently I have added a new 60GB Quantum IDE hard drive to the server. I have set it up as a MASTER on a separate IDE channel. Two partitions on the /dev/hdc are /dev/hdc1, /dev/hdc2 - both using ext3. For more detailed HDD parameters, this is 'hdparm -i /dev/hdc': ----------------- /dev/hdc: Model=IC35L060AVV207-0, FwRev=V22OA66A,

Hi Gang. I installed CentOS last night and the sound card detection failled to detect the sound card. I have a Asrock K8NF6G-VSTA mother board, with a nVidia NF6100-405 chip set. I have tried various live distro's and I ran Fedora 7 on it for just over 2 weeks and none of them detected the sound card. I'm a newbie to Red Hat based distributions but have been using Mandriva for

Hi All, I had to reboot a machine as I lost the ssh connectivity to it. I could ping to it though. On rebooting, the dmesg buffer showed the following messsage hdc: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: dma_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, CHS=7520/0/155, sector=1820440 end_request: I/O error, dev 16:02 (hdc), sector 1820440 hdc: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady

Hi, I get the below from dmesg. The server seems to run fine, but it does worry me. What should I do?

Hi, Sorry if this is an old and fixed issue but I can't really seem to find a definitive explanation/fix to this in the mail lists. Ever since I upgraded to FC2 my server randomly decides that it can no longer access the disk and "aborts" the ext3 journal leaving it read-only as expected. I've seen the same errors on other mail list, explained away as disk or disk cable

Hi, yesterday my linux machine gave me some smartd errors so i checked the disk in another machine and it had defective sectors, I installed a new hard disk on the original machine. Today this is being reported in logwatch. I have a Maxtor (200gig) as hda, a cdrom as hdc and another hard disk that is used for storage as hdd.

I have 3 OQOs with Centos and I frequently get the following error messages: Jan 28 13:18:07 oqo3 kernel: hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } Jan 28 13:18:07 oqo3 kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown Jan 28 13:18:07 oqo3 kernel: hdc: no DRQ after issuing MULTWRITE Jan 28 13:18:07 oqo3 kernel: ide1: reset: success I have Fedora 10 on a fourth unit and it NEVER gets this message.

Wondering if anyone here might better be able to diagnose an issue we're seeing, or point me to some guidelines for this sort of thing. There are two machines with identical hardware, both running Red Hat 7.3's stock SMP kernel (required due to third party software). Both have come down with the same symptoms after having run fine for a number of months. The initial errors were these:

Hello, I want to install CentOS 4.4 on a Compaq Proliant DL 360. The installation fails just after booting on the first CD. Linux tries to autodetect hardware and fails with the CDROM. Here is the error message: ########################## hdc: CD-224E, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive Using cfq io scheduler ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 ide-cd: cmd 0x5a timed out hdc: lost interrupt ide-cd: cmd 0x5a

Hello all. I'm using RedHat 7.2 now and haven't have any problems until today. I can still boot into the system at this time, but cannot load X at all.

Hi, I run hundreds of Redhat 8.0 boxes and Fedora Core 1 boxes, both Operation systems boxes give me some trouble reporting disk errors like the following (collected from /var/log/messages of each linux boxes by my own script). And a "badblocks" command on some of the related hard drive reports that failed sectors found, while others reports no, false-positive. Any one can give me

Hi All, I m a novice developer of Linux applications. Recently I faced a file system corruption. (I guess) I have a Kernel 2.4.7-10 with ext3 file system in compact flash. The system was up for 3 months and was running with average load conditions. One fine day, it just started sending kernel messages on the serial console. The message was like this. EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,2)):

Hi I have a clean CentOS 4.4 disk and I have setup a RAID 1 with two IDE disk. The system RAID 1 boot fine but when I disconnect a disk (the first disk) the system not boot.

I have an Athlon with about 10 HDDs plugged in, primarily to do Disk2Disk backups. Some drives are PATA, some are SATA, some are USB. A strange concoction, but it's been relatively stable for some 4-5 years, despite numerous upgrades and so on. It's been running CentOS 4 for a long, long time. (years) Recently, I've started to have problems with its stability, and after 2 weeks

Hello I seem to be getting some messages via email and in var/log/messages as well, i think its a hard drive gone bad but was wondering if anyone has seen something similar to this or would have some ideas if its fixable or not, here are the messages This email was generated by the smartd daemon running on: host name: localhost.localdomain DNS domain: localdomain NIS domain: (none)

Hi, I have read this thread and want to say that I have expirienced the same problem. Once, when I was loged in, one of my filesystems ( root filesystem :( ) became read-only with the same symptoms. But results was more tragic. Almost in each directory avg. 10% of files had incorrect attributes, owner, links, etc. But filenames was correct. So, I was obliged to re-create root filesystem :(

Sorry, I know this is not really libvirt related, but I'm searching for a solution sind about an hour and cannot find anything that helps me ... Ok, I used to install a standard debian in a kvm instance, and removed the virtual cd-rom after installation. Now I'm getting this triplet every five minutes in my syslog: Jan 26 19:25:12 srv62 kernel: [ 1324.267675] hdc: task_in_intr:
