TaxicletterHi everybody!15:02
diogenes_hi15:02
TaxicletterI have an external USB SSD drive which I want to "check"15:02
Taxiclettergparted crashes when I try to.15:02
TaxicletterSo I would like to try it using the terminal.15:02
diogenes_Taxicletter, run in terminal: gksu gparted15:02
TaxicletterI want to check the disk, because RuneAudio only sees a part of the folders.15:02
TaxicletterI already tried sudo gparted :-) it said something about segmentation fault, core dumped.15:04
TaxicletterI googled that, but didn't find an answer...15:04
diogenes_<diogenes_> Taxicletter, run in terminal: gksu gparted15:05
Taxicletteryes, i'm doing that. Second time now, the first time gparted quited (nothing in terminal, except "libparted : 3.2"15:06
TaxicletterSecond time, crashed again, nothing in terminal...15:06
TaxicletterWithout the disk connected, gparted runs OK15:06
Taxicletterits FAT32 by the way, the disk15:06
diogenes_Taxicletter, what you trying to do?15:07
Taxicletterchecking that disk? I don't what I could check, permissions, bad blocks, integrety?15:07
TaxicletterBecause RuneAudio (mpd player on my raspberry pi) only sees 6 of the 30 folders15:08
diogenes_Taxicletter, try installing: gnome-disks15:08
Taxicletteryes, I have that.15:08
Taxicletterbut the checking options are greyed out (those are for SMART I think?)15:08
diogenes_Taxicletter, I'm afraid your storage is broken and needs to be formatted first.15:09
TaxicletterI was afraid for that. I don't have enough free space on any device to copy everything TO and FROM :-)15:10
TaxicletterI format it again to FAT32? Because I want to be able to read and write on it with MacOS (later, maybe)15:12
TaxicletterI have to say, I like linux, Xubuntu, a lot, but I have trouble with USB drives all the time. Sometimes permissions, but a lot of time mysterious stuff, never clear what exactly. It's very sensitive to wrong disconnection it seems and no really good repairing software.15:13
diogenes_Taxicletter, try this one: https://askubuntu.com/questions/147228/how-to-repair-a-corrupted-fat32-file-system15:14
TaxicletterI will do that right away, thanks!15:14
TaxicletterWhen I do "sudo dosfsck -t -a -w /dev/sdd"15:18
TaxicletterIt says "fsck.fat 3.0.28 (2015-05-16) - Logical sector size is zero."15:19
TaxicletterI tried the next option "sudo dosfsck -t -a -w /dev/sdd" with the same answer...15:21
TaxicletterIf I do "dmesg|tail" I get different error messages.15:22
Taxicletter5 times: "Buffer I/O error on dev sdc1, logical block 625140355, async page read""15:23
Taxicletter(with different blocks)15:23
diogenes_all is indicating that it's broken15:24
TaxicletterYes, I'm googling the error messages and I'm afraid you're right. Thanks anyway15:29
