Kyle Bentley, as per http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A75M-DGS/?cat=Download&os=BIOS an update is available for your BIOS (2.60). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and just provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1099600 Title: jbd2/dm-* constant io, filling hard disk Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: My hardware at a glance: AMD A10 5800k ASRock FM2A75-DGS 4 GB DDR3 1866 250 GB SATA II HD ST3250318AS 64 GB OCZ Vertex-4 Software is Ubuntu 12.10 x64, stock kernel version 3.5.0-21-generic I have my /home partition residing on the 250 gb drive, and it stays almost always full, which is why I've probably been able to notice this bug so quickly. I was getting warnings about my disk getting full, and I thought it odd since I haven't moved any files around lately. iotop shows the command [jbd2/dm-0-8] and [jbd2/dm-2-8] writing to my disk about every 10 seconds, and it writes about 50 KB each time, to a location I can't seem to find. It's filled up a few GB of space today alone, and I fear that it may be overwriting, instead of filling up empty space that isn't there! I am sure that the problem only started somewhat recently. If any other logs or info would help, let me know what to post.
