Experts, We have purchased a new Sharp Actius RD-10 laptop and are seeing the (infamous)
error ldm_validate_partition_table() : read disk failed bug during boot and at other times. We've read the bug reports at https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=930 which seem to indicate that it's fixed. It's not! And the bug seems to break a lot of stuff in Mdk 9.1 on this machine. We've tried installing the latest update kernel Jun 4 19:53 kernel-2.4.21.0.18mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm but we get the same errrors. We get the error at least 3 times during boot. Once after the message that says "Load module dependencies",one after "CUPS OK" We can't remember the third instance. It also happens while running, and seems to keep a number of other things from running. We think that either the SmartMedia/Secure Data slot, Compact Flash or Sony memory stick hardware, or some combination is tickling the bug. Any help will be appreciated. Dean S.
