I have *way* less of my issues after cleaning up all the hdparm calls during boot. The mishmash of acpi-support, gnome-power-manager, devicekit, laptop-mode-tools, pm-utils etc bombards the hard drive with hdparm calls. I have filed some bug and patches for some of these packages (bug 437796, bug 438355). Especially consistent treatment of the "nohdparm" boot option would be nice (bug 443992).
Mikael, you can try: sudo mv /sbin/hdparm /sbin/hdparm.orig sudo cp /bin/true /sbin/hdparm After testing this, you can revert it with: sudo mv /sbin/hdparm.orig /sbin/hdparm -- ata exception and hang when booting, at T=n.81606 s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
