Package: smartmontools Version: 5.36-8 Severity: important The long self test causes various problems: I get I/O disk errors and sometimes the hard disk is no longer spinning, and I need to reboot. First I thought I got these problems because my hard disk was becoming old, but I always get these problems just after a long self test, and otherwise, the hard disk works well (it has just a few bad blocks, which are marked).
I've attached the output of "smartctl -a /dev/hda". -- Package-specific info: Ouput of /usr/share/bug/smartmontools: # CONFIG_IDE_TASK_IOCTL is not set -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (900, 'stable'), (200, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-1-powerpc Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages smartmontools depends on: ii debianutils 2.17.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-15 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip Versions of packages smartmontools recommends: ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20050715cvs-1 A simple mail user agent -- no debconf information
