This is a question on IDE error recovery. I have a broken drive and while copying the data over to a new drive I have seen: Dec 9 03:09:40 grisu kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=68460463 Dec 9 03:10:10 grisu kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=70278843 Dec 9 03:10:39 grisu kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=71672863 Dec 9 03:10:49 grisu kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=72831895 Dec 9 03:11:49 grisu kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=14894591 So, it says "1 retry left" every time and there is no message saying that a hard error occured. Does that mean the files got off the drive OK? This is 6-stable. Intel ICH4 UDMA100 controller (Thinkpad).
