I upgraded my Centos 4.7 server last night. Switched from a cheaper 50$ asus motherboard to a Supermicro motherboard. I also, using dd, copied entire 500g SATA seagate drive to new 500g SATA seagate drive so as to have two copies in case something went wrong. Anyway, now I keep getting this error: Nov 21 06:08:33 server kernel: hda: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } Nov 21 06:08:33 server

greetings, since i have a test server in front of me and i have never tried it i request your assistance please. ive always been a fdisk and lilo person i have a fresh CentOS 4 "test" install on a WD120 sata /dev/sda /dev/sda1 / /dev/sda2 /boot /dev/sda3 swap and it just so happens i have a old test 17Gig Maxtor PATA with a fresh Win98 on it from helping my father migrate to a newer

I installed a 4.1 x86_64 with kernel 2.6.9-11.ELsmp (rpm) initially. My box is tyan 5350 and a SATA harddisk The install was successful and the harddisk was detected as /dev/sdaX But strangely, when I first reboot my machine. The harddisk change to /dev/hdaX What is the problem ? Below are some of dmesg output hda: WDC WD1200JD-00HBB0, ATA DISK drive Probing IDE interface ide1... Probing IDE

Hi, I am using Xen Center5.6 FP1 since last 8 months and it was working fine since last few weeks, when i observed that suddenly all new Xen VMs started showing me sda or hda disks as xvhd. This is observed when i try to create any new Xen VM on my XenCenter5.6FP1. All my earlier Xen VMs are still showing hda or sda but when i try to upgrade the respective VMs say from SLES11GA to SLES11 SP1, it

I am migrating off of a 40GIG hda to a new 160GIG sda disk. I plan on installing 4.2 from scratch. But after that what is the correct way do transfer all the data from hda (home partition really) to the new sda home partition? I presume there is just a couple files in /etc to restore also. Like hosts, passwd. Anything else? Other suggestions welcome also. this is my first time migrating to a

Might be slightly OT as it isn't necessarily a CentOS related issue. I've been using WD Reds as mdraid components which worked pretty well for non-IOPS intensive workloads. However, the latest C7 server I built, ran into problems with them on on a Intel C236 board (SuperMicro X11SSH) with tons of "ata bus error write fpdma queued". Googling on it threw up old suggestions to

hi, we've got a server with a 8 port 3ware card and 2 ide system disks. now we'd like to replace the ide disks with scsi disks or sata disks (these also recognized as scsi in the kernel). but we can't boot from it. the problem are twofold. first in the normal case the first scsi host scsi0 id the 3ware card, but grub only see the first 8 disk so if the system disk are sdi and sdj the

Hi all, I''m using ThinkPad T60, with xen3.1.0, windows could be installed into a file based virtual disk. however, when I tried to use a physical disk, I got this err msg: HVMAssist BIOS, 1 cpu $Revision: 1.138 $ $Date: 2005/05/07 15:55:26 $ ata0 master: QEMU HARDDISK ATA-7 Hard-Disk (0 MBytes) ata0 slave: UnKnown device Booting from Hard Disk...

I noticed that the changelog for the new kernel 2.6.9-34 on the redhat enterprise watchlist states on of the fixes as; 145061 - SMART support in SATA driver (P1) Does this mean that with that kernel we should be able to interrogate SATA drives now ? Cheers, Bards.

I've been handed a Supermicro system that is using the Intel? H6300ESB Serial ATA Controller (Supermicro P4SCI motherboard). When I install CentOS5, everything seems to work OK, but it has absolutely horrid disk performance. Upon further inspection, it seems that the SATA disks are being treated as legacy IDE devices using PIO. Gah.... Has anyone else had this problem? I recall having

Hi I have a supermicro server, motherboard is with C612 chipset and beside that with LSI3108 raid controller integrated. Two Intel SSD DC S3710 200GB. OS: Centos 7.1 up to date. My problem is that the Intel SSD Data Center Tool (ISDCT) does not recognize the SSD drives when they connected to the standard S-ATA ports on the motherboard, but through the LSI raid controller is working. Does

I have the CentOS 5.5 install DVD and trying to install with software RAID1 on two 2TB SATA drives. The CentOS install only sees one drive. This is a Supermicro motherboard with fakeraid turned off in bios. I tried the trick like so: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=64 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=512 count=64 Still no go. linux rescue console does see both sda and sdb. Whats

Suse 10.1 AMD64 Xen3 New to Xen. The dom0 is up and running. I am trying to get my first domU working. My approach is to use precompiled images from jailtime.org. After some manual tinkering with the .cfg file the domU proceeds to boot but stalls with the following error. I cannot get past this - any ideas ? Brian Using config file "/etc/xen/vm/vm1".

Hi folks, I have an HP Proliant 140DL G2 server with what appears to be an IDE drive in non-DMA mode. Performance on the server is extremely bad when large amounts of disk activity is taking place. I think the problem is that my drive is not in DMA mode: # hdparm /dev/hda /dev/hda: multcount = 16 (on) IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit) unmaskirq = 0 (off) using_dma = 0 (off)

Subject says it. I would like to find out if I have anything written on the MBR of a disk in my system /dev/sda, or any other device. If there is something there, is it readable, or recognizable to humans? thanks, -chuck

Hello listmates, I would like to build a 12-15 TB RAID 5 data server to run under ContOS. Any recommendations as far as hardware, configuration, etc? Thanks. Boris.

In the past I have used clonzilla under xen to backup windows domains. I just tried it and it will not work. this is xen 4.1.2 and clonzilla-live 1.2.10-14 the disk line is: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/xvg0/nfdlts-c,hda,w'', ''file:/extra/isoimages/clonzilla.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'' ] It boots cd OK. The problem is devices are xvda not hda and clonzilla is not happy with

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. All plain IDE (not sata) --------------------- Kernel Begin

I think I have booting issues for my custom kernel on centos 4. the sda system cannot find the disk. I used a qemu image to build a centos 4 MATH_EMULATION kernel. This system has /dev/hda. The system I am putting the vmlinuz and initrd files on is a /dev/sda system. I dont think the initrd image is getting built correctly. Does this make sense? What might I look at changing to ensure my
