Re: Fun and games with 3TB hard drives.

Lets be clear here. There isn't really a bug in fdisk. It just doesn't handle any partition table types other than MSDOS. And MSDOS type partition tables have the 2 TB limitation, not fdisk. I don't blame developers for not updating fdisk. I think its an inferior tool to parted (and gparted).

Re: Won't boot. udevd: worker not accepting message.

I double checked dmesg and found a complaint about /dev/sdb1. I pulled it and now I'm getting a different error altogether. I think the hard drive controller is failing. During boot it hangs on Started monitoring of LVM2 mirrors, snapshots, etc using dmeventd or progress polling. After a few m

I pulled the hard drive from my laptop and installed it in my server and it behaves exactly the same way. The drive itself is an SSD and it tests cleans. Its not initramfs either... I only touched one kernel when I was testing the nvidia driver. None of the other kernels will boot either. Somet

Re: Won't boot. udevd: worker not accepting message.

The hard drive throwing those errors boots now in the server. I have no idea why. I'm running a backup on it now. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedorapro

File copy errors on EXT4 SSD but fsck says its clean ????

I am trying to do a full backup of my home directory on an SSD drive with about 70 GB of content via a straight folder to folder copy in Dolphin. When I did the copy, the process reported a file could not be read. I answered Skip and it continued. A short while later it reported another file co

OT: How much RAM should I get in a new laptop ?

I'm specing a new laptop, probably a Dell XPS 17, with an i7 processor. It will have an SSD and be driving 2 monitors. The XPS 17s come in two varieties, one with 2 DIMM slots and the other with 4 DIMM slots. - I do a ton of browsing for research purposes and may have as many as 20 Firefox sessi

Re: OT: How much RAM should I get in a new laptop ?

Thanks for the replies. I was more wondering if its worth about $150 to get 4 DIMM slots instead of just 2 DIMM slots. I was thinking I could get away with 2 x 4 GB for a total of 8 GB. But given its an i7 and all, I'll probably keep it for a while and should probably plan that someday I'll want

Recovering a failed (SSD) hard drive. Unknown partition type.

Last week the SSD in my laptop threw errors when I was doing a backup copy of it. Only 69 of 70 GB copied using Dolphin disk to disk with "Auto Skip" enabled when there were errors. I guess the good part is that 69 of 70 GB of data copied during the backup and the other good part is that I store
