Here's the situation. I have a MSI KN8Neo-f motherboard with a
Seagate Barracuda 250 GB SATA drive. I have replaced this drive three
times in the last two weeks due to it failing. Now the only thing in
common is the use of a 2.6.22.9 kernel I built from scratch, before
that I was using 2.6.19 kernel but working on doing some upgrades for
the CLFS project and tried a 2.6.22.9. I will explain the situation
and including the links I used for fix the issues.
It boots up and instantly has a problem detecting so I have to add
irqpoll to my bootup line. {Reference
http://my.opera.com/snowburn/blog/index.dml/tag/failed%20to%20set%20xfermode}
Then I get the adma issue, so I add sata_nv.adma=0 to my bootup
line.{Reference
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0706.1/1424.html}
Now after a few times of booting the drive completely fails. So is
the nv_sata drive the cause?? Based on what I have done yes, and the
reason I can say that is because I took another one of those drives
and the same computer loaded Windows(forgive me for using this
word!!!) on it and it worked perfectly.
You'll have to be more specific about "completely fails".. Also, it
would be useful to get the dmesg output from dmesg directly and not
from syslog, as the entries posted under the second link you gave were
missing some critical information (it seems that syslog can do this in
some cases..) In particular the line showing what command failed would
be useful.
It never gets into the system at all, just locks up. The hard drive
starts clicking and eventually doesn't get recognized by BIOS.
That doesn't sound like a kernel problem if it's not even recognized by
the BIOS, there's nothing the kernel should be able to do that could
cause that. Sounds more like a hardware issue. If the drive has been
replaced before then it could be a power supply or temperature problem?
