Fedora :: Can A Removable Block Device Be Always Recognized With Same Name

Apr 7, 2010

I have an external hard disk drive and I would like it to be recognized with the same name (e.g. /dev/sbd) after each boot.
Is there any way to make that?

General :: External Hard Drive Is No Longer Recognized - Buffer I/O Error On Device Sdb1, Logical Block 6160408

Feb 28, 2010

The external hard drive which contains all my photos and where I backed-up all my important documents is no longer recognized. It is a three month old 500GB Iomage Prestige Desktop Hard Drive.When I plug it in, it is recognised as a USB device, because it shows up when I type lsusb, but dmesg gives this error message.

[19712.013250] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 21
[19712.145347] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[19712.147214] scsi25 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

[code]....

I popped the disk out of the casing put it on a SATA connect internally and then tried the file recovery programs testdisk/photorec and SpinRite, but both failed because they couldn't recognize the external hard disk.

Fedora :: Kernel: Buffer I/O Error On Device Dm-0, Logical Block 124

Nov 28, 2009

I have 2 hdds, with encrypted / and /home. Besides there are four other (encrypted ext4) partitions I use rarely. In Fedora 11 at boottime I gave the luks passphrase for / and home and the system booted as intended.

Whenever I needed those extra encrypted partitions I mounted them in Nautilus. Now, in Fedora 12 at boottime dracut tries to open all the encrypted partitions, / and /home are mounted fine, but opening all the other partitions gave the following messages in messages.log:

Quote:

dracut: luksOpen /dev/sdb6 luks-02a0e706-a26f-4019-a2a0-88a0366a994d
kernel: Buffer I/O error on device dm-0, logical block 124
kernel: device-mapper: ioctl: unable to remove open device temporary-cryptsetup-304
kernel: Buffer I/O error on device dm-0, logical block 124
kernel: Buffer I/O error on device dm-0, logical block 124

[code]....

...and these messages are repeated with the other partiitions, and the boot time takes very, very long. How can I tell dracut to ignore those extra encrypted partitions at boottime?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Removable Device Not Detected By Its Notifier - Dolphin / Sort It?

Sep 5, 2010

I upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3 yesterday, using a 64-bit Dell 1535 laptop.

With the new version, I find that the Device Notifier no longer detects my mp3 player through any of the USB ports. Neither does Dolphin.

Similar threads that I've read through have not done the trick.

Fedora Installation :: No CD Block Device From LiveCD, Then "unable To Find A Medium Containing A Live File"?

Sep 12, 2010

the message on the title only happens with Ubuntu. In Fedora, it just stops booting from LiveCD with "WARNING: Cannot find root file system!". The rest of the symptoms are the same.I'm trying to install Fedora LiveCD on an IBM i Series notebook (model 1161-21X). It's a Celeron powered unit with RAM expanded to 512MB. It has a 10GB HDD, and an internal CD-ROM drive. Although it has two USB ports (1.1), it cannot boot from a USB drive, so no pendrive nor external CD unit solution possible.When I boot from LiveCD, it stops booting with the message above. Looking atsg, there's no CD-ROM driver loaded. Also, there's a char device for sg0, but no block device for it, so no way to mount it. It seems that the driver module has been removed from the kernel. I'm currently running Fedora Core 5 in it. This very same problem happens with any Ubuntu newer that 6 or any Fedora post 7.

General :: Fake Block Device For Testing LVM?

Jun 1, 2010

I want to test LVM+Raid. When I was testing ZFS on Solaris, I was able to create regular files, and use those as disks for testing.I tried creating a regular file full of zeros w/ dd, then partitioning that. fdisk seemed to be able to create a partition on the regular file, but mkfs and parted couldn't work with it. Is there any way to create fake block devices for testing?

Programming :: C Program - Getting The Raw Size Of A Block Device

Oct 16, 2010

How do you go about getting the raw size of a block device under Linux from within a C program? And I mean the raw size of the block device itself, not a file system that may or may not be installed on it. And I'd like to be able to get the raw size of any block device, from hard drives (e.g., /dev/sda) to LVM partitions (/dev/mapper/vg0-home) to loop devices to anything else that is a Linux block device.

Debian Installation :: Wireless Device Is Not Recognized

Feb 25, 2016

I have a 2016 Lenovo (ideapad) 500-15ACZ laptop, and just replaced Windows 10 with Debian 8.3. I can't get Debian 8.3 to recognize the wireless device. The device isn't defective, for it works on Windows 10. The Windows 10 driver is called "WLAN Driver (Atheros, Realtek, Broadcom) 12.0.0.116_ 7.35.295.2_2023.1". Here's the output of "lspci":

Programming :: Send Block Device Name To Bash Variable?

Feb 13, 2009

I'm setting up a machine that's going to be used to test randomly connected tape drives one at a time, and as such, I'm writing the test routine using mt in a bash script, for user-friendliness. The problem is the block device name changes on occasion as tape drives are swapped out and busses are rescanned, so I can't "hard code" a block name into the script.

I know programs like lsscsi and hwinfo will give you block device names as part of their output, but I can't seem to grep anything in such a way as to have the final output be just the block name (ie /dev/st2, or optimally 'st2'), so that I can just have the script read said output, and drop it into the necessary variable.

Hardware :: Block Device Names Change After Reboot

Jan 19, 2011

I built a Raid5 volume with 3 SATA II hard disk drives. Further I have a system disk conected through IDE. During the first setup the IDE disk becomes sda, the SATA II disk sd[bcd] respectively. Now, sometimes the device names change after reboot - why ever... E.g. one of the raid5 disk become sda and so I got an error message during the boot procedure regarding the raid set. Curious, when the system is up and I stop and restart the Raid5 volume it comes up and runs fine. Because I'm currently at work I can't post any more detailed config files at the moment.

General :: Handle Bad Block In Mass Storage Device?

Nov 2, 2009

* I am implementing mass storage device on a test board.

* It contains NAND flash.

* Using corresponding "udc driver" and "g_file_storage" I could make my test board enumerate as mass storage device on my Linux machine.

* my 16 MB pen drive (test board) is now ready for read/write.

But there are some Bad Blocks on the NAND.Hence copy is not complete. Although on Linux machine there is no error message. Now , what is there in a normal pen drive which manages the Bad Block or what am I missing so that such Bad Blocks are managed.

Here is the error I get on my test board :

mtdblock: erase of region [0x2c0000, 0x4000] on "Bon 2" failed
end_request: I/O error, dev mtdblock2, sector 5664
Buffer I/O error on device mtdblock2, logical block 708

Programming :: Block On Write Call To TtyACM Device

Nov 1, 2010

I have a write call to a ttyACM serial device that blocks after several hundreds bytes are written.I'm writing in ~25 byte chunks, so I have 5-8 successful writes, then the next write blocks forever.I can bypass the blocked call using select, but I can never call write again without closing and re-opening the port.

The serial port is opened correctly because I can read from it just fine. Write permissions are correct, and it's opened RW.The code is likely correct because I tested the same code using the same device on a pure RS-232 serial port, and it worked fine - no block. Is there anything to know about the linux ACM module?It's my understanding that write calls basically shouldn't block.They're supposed to return -1 if there's an error.

Ubuntu Networking :: Verify Whether A USB Device Is Recognized As A Modem?

I am running Ubuntu 9.10 KK (UNR) on my Netbook and I use the Huawei E5830 as UMTS modem. I can connect to the E5830 through WiFo (no problem at all) and USB. How can I verify whether the E5830 is recognized as modem when connecting it to USB? It changes the mode from USB storage device to USB modem, however I think I can not access it as a modem.

OpenSUSE Install :: How To Browse 11.3 CD - Block Device Write Protected

Jul 15, 2010

I can browse the iso image easily enough with a loopback mount, but when it comes to mounting the actual CD (which I did first), I get:

Code:
$ sudo mount -t udf,iso9660 /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd
mount: block device /dev/dvd is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/dvd,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
/var/log/messages isn't very helpful, either:

Code:
Jul 15 15:15:56 bkorb-dt kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device
Jul 15 15:15:56 bkorb-dt kernel: sr0: rw=0, want=68, limit=4
Jul 15 15:15:56 bkorb-dt kernel: isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=sr0, iso_blknum=16, block=16
$ md5sum openSUSE-11.3-DVD-x86_64.iso
adf5d2a0a03c1e3aaf102fd6a4771b87 openSUSE-11.3-DVD-x86_64.iso

I burned it with K3B and it gets the same result trying to mount it. K3B seems to know that the image is an iso9660 and is able to display the various 9660 id fields just fine. It just won't mount.
