UNFORTUNATELY the workaround is not a good idea for a NEW installation on my netbook. I was able to edit /lib/udev/rules.d/95-devkit- disks.rules before the installer rebooted into the new system, but as soon as the system installed the first set of critical and recommended updates, the filesystem was thoroughly trashed before update-manager had even finished.
Is there a single package I can pin in apt, or can I just remove or somehow deactivate libatasmart itself instead of editing the udev rule? -- devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852 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
