Hi all! I've got a Venus DS3R Pro2 external drive unit with two drives set up as RAID-1, and the raid volume is formatted as ext4. it is listed in /etc/fstab as: UUID=f787c482-fb92-4ba7-87d6-cfeaef6b64c2 /mnt/backup ext4 defaults,users 0 2 if the external unit (which attaches via e-sata) is NOT powered on when the system boots, it hangs and drops to a maintenance prompt. I'd sure like

Hi list, I've a notebook with C7 (1511). This notebook has 2 disk (640 GB) and I've configured them with MD at level 1. Some days ago I've noticed some critical slowdown while opening applications. First of all I've disabled acpi on disks. I've checked disk for badblocks 4 consecutive times for disk sda and sdb and I've noticed a strange behaviour. On sdb there are

Hi! I''ve got a motherboard (Gigabyte GA-G33-DS3R) where the Ethernet port has been broken. I''ll buy a new motherboard, but wants to keep all my other equipment (CPU, Memory, TV-cards etc). The requirements/wishes on the new motherboard are 2 Ethernet ports and 2 PCI slots. It would also be good if it would support VT-d. I''ve found two boards that would fulfill my

Hi Guys, My first post here. I have recently installed RH9 and am having some rather wierd problems that make me suspect file corruption. After some useage the machine locked up hard when trying to use 3d graphics (I have a radeon 7200 with dri enabled). After this happened occasionally the system refuses to boot- it stops at the apm line of the kernel boot process. I tried looking at my hard

Had to replace dying cpu and mobo, so also replaced IDE with new SATA drive. Installed from latest ISO onto SATA and can't get networking to lease an IP address from my ISP (Comcast). The network utility always comes up with a private address (192.168.0.2) instead of Comcast IP. To add to confusion, if I boot into old IDE drive, I get proper network connection to internet, but lose my

Hello, Having a problem with software RAID that is driving me crazy. Here's the details: 1. CentOS 6.2 x86_64 install from the minimal iso (via pxeboot). 2. Reasonably good PC hardware (i.e. not budget, but not server grade either) with a pair of 1TB Western Digital SATA3 Drives. 3. Drives are plugged into the SATA3 ports on the mainboard (both drives and cables say they can do 6Gb/s). 4.

Please keep me in the CC. I am not subscribed to this list. When booting 4.4.0 on one of my systems, when nouveau loads, the screen goes into powersave. It doesn't appear to register the fb0 device. When X starts up, the screen comes back and I'm able to login. When launching anything that accesses 3D, the screen freezes. Nothing is logged in either X or dmesg. This same system works

Hi All, Is there a way to check the harddisk health before CentOS installation.? One way I used to do was by using --badblocks check in ks.cfg file while using RH 7.2. This is not working (atleast not with the same syntax as in RH 7.2) in CentOS. Is there an alternate (correct) syntax or is there a new (better) way to check harddisk health before CentOS installation? Please help me

Hi Andre, ext3 folk, It would be really great if you could help me out here, I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue, a driver issue, an ext3 issue or some combination of them... I have a KT133A motherboard with an on-board promise controller, and an ACARD ATP865 in a PCI slot. I'm running 2.4.19-ac4 with the lvm 1.0.5 patches. The acard has two drives, hde and hdg attached to it, both

the facts: i've got an ext3 partition that system didn't correctly unmont due to a power failure while i was downloading a huge file. at the reboot the other ext3 partition (the /) got checked and fixed perfectly, but fsck was needed for the one where the file was downloading to. here's the problem: the system completely freeze during the check, approximately always at the same

I decided, after the last discussion of smartd and S.M.A.R.T. disks, to take a look in my /var/log/messages, and I'm seeing fair bit of this: Sep 10 20:11:23 mhrichter smartd[3361]: Device: /dev/sda, 4294967295 Offline uncorrectable sectors Sep 10 20:41:23 mhrichter smartd[3361]: Device: /dev/hdb, 21 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors Sep 10 20:41:24 mhrichter smartd[3361]: Device:

I've posted before about my Venus DS3R Pro2, specifically in relation to using USB3. But this a different topic about the same device. It doesn't seem to do any power-saving on its own, i.e, the drives stay spinning continuosuly, 24X7. Setting the appropriate power-save options in the screen saver or power manager screens doesn't seem to have any effect on these drives. Wondering
