BenCubuntu_demon: I'd have to say it looks more like a hw error09:30
BenCubuntu_demon: media errors can sometimes be exposed on large upgrades (e.g. from feisty to gutsy) because it will start accessing an area of the drive that has never been touched before09:30
BenCupgrades are very disk intensive09:30
ubuntu_demonHey09:37
ubuntu_demonBenC : how would you explain 2 months without any problems ?09:38
BenCubuntu_demon: not touching the same spot on the drive? :)09:38
ubuntu_demonBenC: the problems were also on my /home partition09:38
ubuntu_demon/sda1 Gutsy /sda2 Feisty /sda3 home ... all three partitions experienced media errors in Feisty around july 30th09:39
BenCubuntu_demon: I must have misread something, I thought you were saying that they experienced errors on gutsy09:40
ubuntu_demonI have seen the the media errors in Feisty. (I can't remember whether I have also seen them in Gutsy). The result of these media errors was that fsck was reporting problems09:41
ubuntu_demonand files were ending up in lost+found09:42
ubuntu_demonMy guess about what's happening : Gutsy interacts in some different way with SATA drives (I heard something about a new SATA subsystem). Gutsy puts my SATA drive in some "mode" which works fine for Gutsy but is remembered through soft-resets of the machine. Feisty can't handle this "mode" and causes the filesystem to corrupt.09:43
BenCubuntu_demon: feisty and gutsy both use libata (sata and pata)09:44
BenCand that wouldn't cause this09:44
ubuntu_demonAre there any (potentially relevant) differences in libata between Feisty and Gutsy ?09:45
=== m0rg0th [n=m0rg0th@219.64.120.181] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
BenCnope, unless you hit gutsy while HPA wasn't enabled by default09:45
ubuntu_demonBut that's just a guess maybe something else is happening ofcourse. I personally still think it's a bug somewhere somehow. 09:46
=== osmosis [n=steven@63.139.86.3] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
ubuntu_demonI installed Gutsy Beta last week on /dev/sda1 ... yesterday I saw a media error in Feisty again09:46
=== asac_ [n=asac@debian/developer/asac] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
BenCcheck the media size in dmesg09:47
BenCmake sure that feisty and gutsy see the drives at the same size09:47
JanCubuntu_demon: FYI exchanging the HDD shouldn't void your warranty (at least, when this is a personal laptop and not a company one)09:48
ubuntu_demonBenC : can I grep for something to find these media sizes ?09:48
BenCdmesg | grep "hardware sectors"09:49
ubuntu_demonJanC : I'm not sure there are paper seals on the screws talking about warranty. Besides I still don't have access to any 2.5" drive to replace it with.09:49
ubuntu_demondmesg | grep "hardware sectors" ... results in nothing09:50

ubuntu_demonI can't find anything like that in Feisty dmesg or dmesg.009:52
BenCwell, you'll definitely want to do this on a fresh boot09:53
BenCdoesn't have to look like that09:53
BenCsomewhere in there (read it to find it) there is a drive detecting and it will show the physical size of the drive09:53
ubuntu_demonOn my mounted Gutsy partition (from feisty): [    6.216000]  sd 0:0:0:0: [sda]  156368016 512-byte hardware sectors (80060 MB)09:53
ubuntu_demon[    6.216000]  sd 0:0:0:0: [sda]  156368016 512-byte hardware sectors (80060 MB)09:53

ubuntu_demon[    4.524000]  SCSI device sda: 156368016 512-byte hdwr sectors (80060 MB)09:54
ubuntu_demon/sda1 seems to have the same size from Feisty and Gutsy dmesg's09:55
ubuntu_demonShould I reboot to Gutsy, read-only mount sda2 and sda3 and compare those too ?09:55
ubuntu_demonow wait 80060 MB is the entire harddrive. So these sizes are equal .. that's good :)09:57
ubuntu_demonWhat else can I do to find the problem ?09:59
ubuntu_demonWhat's HPA ? I can find hpa mentioned in my Feisty dmesg but not in my gutsy dmesg. Maybe that's the problem.10:07
ubuntu_demonGutsy should have hpa enabled according to your own email. But if this is somehow not enabled that might be causing my problem right ?10:11
ubuntu_demonor at least it might be somehow related to the problem right ?10:11
BenCubuntu_demon: no, if that was the problem, you'd see two different sizes10:12
ubuntu_demonIn Feisty dmesg I see things like : [    4.028000]  ata1.00: ata_hpa_resize 1: sectors = 156368016, hpa_sectors = 15636801610:13
ubuntu_demon[    4.036000]  ata1.00: ata_hpa_resize 1: sectors = 156368016, hpa_sectors = 15636801610:13
ubuntu_demonI Gutsy I don't see these lines. Should that be the case ?10:13
BenCubuntu_demon: just a missing printk in gutsy's stock hpa patch10:13
ubuntu_demonI = in10:13
BenCfeisty kernel had the original hpa patch as written by kyle10:13
ubuntu_demonWhat is hpa ?10:14
BenChpa isn't your problem10:14
BenChpa == host protected area10:14
ubuntu_demonokay10:14
BenCwhich you don't have10:14
ubuntu_demonIs there anything else I can do to (help) find this problem ?10:14
ubuntu_demonIMHO 2 months without any problems when not dual booting with Gutsy and smartctl saying that my harddisk health is okay sounds like it's not my harddrive which is dying. Also the laptop is about 1 year old.10:18
