If I use hdparm -i /dev/hdc (hdc is Model=Pioneer DVD-ROM ATAPIModel DVD-120, FwRev=1.22, SerialNo=) with hdparm-9.27-1.2, I get the following in the system log: hdc: DMA timeout retry hdc: timeout waiting for DMA hdc: DMA timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } hdc: possibly failed opcode: 0xa0 hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } hdc: possibly failed opcode: 0xa0 hdc: drive not ready for command hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } hdc: possibly failed opcode: 0xa0 hdc: drive not ready for command hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } hdc: possibly failed opcode: 0xa0 hdc: drive not ready for command ide-cd: hdc: weird block size 2092990464; setting default block size to 2048 hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } hdc: possibly failed opcode: 0xa0 .. INFO: task hdparm:9196 blocked for more than 120 seconds. , the system becomes unresponsive and the only remedy is a reboot. If I use hdparm-8.9-1.33, everything is normal. The DVD-ROM drive is known to function normally using a live CD. Actually, doing anything with it that doesn't involve the problematic version of hdparm works fine. I'm using custom-compiled linux 2.6.31 from factory, some weeks older than the RCs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot the system with hdparm-9.27-1.2 Actual Results: Boot hangs displaying:Executing storage fixups... It is possible to continue with Ctrl-C, but hdparm -i remains hung. Expected Results: The boot process should proceed normally and hdparm -i /dev/hdc should return. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
