Hi there,
This might not be kernel issue as it is lilo that complains:
"Fatal: open /dev/hdc: Input/output error"
After the zip drive has been used. Issue is present on both 2.6.18-rc3
and 2.4.33-rc3. Box is dual SATA with Zip drive alone on secondary IDE.
configs and dmesgs on:
<http://bugsplatter.mine.nu/test/boxen/sempro/>
<http://bugsplatter.mine.nu/test/boxen/sempro/2.4.xx/>
AMD SktA Sempron with VIA chipset, slackware-10.2
Steps to reproduce:
root@sempro:~# mount /dev/hdc4 /mnt/hd/
root@sempro:~# ls -l /mnt/hd/
total 29238
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 22295 2003-12-08 23:42 config-2.4.23*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 29915976 2003-12-08 23:40 vanilla-2.4.23.tar.bz2*
root@sempro:~# eject /mnt/hd/
Zip100 media pops out
root@sempro:~# vim /etc/lilo.conf # changing reboot default
root@sempro:~# lilo
Warning: COMPACT may conflict with LBA32 on some systems
Fatal: open /dev/hdc: Input/output error
Push Zip100 media back into drive, ZipDrive light flashes...
root@sempro:~# lilo
Warning: COMPACT may conflict with LBA32 on some systems
Added 2.6.18-rc3a
Added 2.6.17.7a *
Added 2.6.16.27a
Added 2.4.33-rc3
Added 2.4.32-hf32.7
Added 2.4.31-hf32.7
Added 2.4.30-hf32.7
Added Slack-2.4.31
root@sempro:~# lilo -V
LILO version 22.5.9
Is this 'normal' for removable media, a kernel problem or a lilo problem?
Thanks,
Grant
