[Bug 1810215] Re: for Seagate USB drive enclosures, SAT (e.g. smartmontools, hdparm) works on kernel 4.13 but not on 4.15
"but we probably don't need to try any harder tracking down the history of the Armbian kernel releases here in an Ubuntu bug report..." Agreed, so the following is just out of interest... re kernel versions, sorry for the confusion, it looks like the reboot I did today moved me up another kernel release without me realising, so I was on .111 at the beginning of the day and .113 at the end. No idea what might have been there back when things were working, but as you say, it's not so important. lsb_release -a doesn't mention armbian: $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.

It seems like the problem is well understood, it's a shame there isn't a simpler way of choosing between the uas and usb-storage drivers, but at least it can be done.

[Bug 1810215] Re: for Seagate USB drive enclosures, SAT (e.g. smartmontools, hdparm) works on kernel 4.13 but not on 4.15
Hmm, you've got me curious now. It's been a while since I really looked at the ARM boards. sources.list.d contains armbian.list which has a single entry: deb http://apt.armbian.com xenial main xenial-utils xenial-desktop That seems like a reasonable candidate? I don't recall if I used an original distro from Odroid or (more likely) went straight for a release from armbian - they were the my favourite when I was building an ARM farm a couple of years ago. References to odroid in /etc/apt seem to be limited to apt.conf.d /01autoremove-kernels. That might answer your earlier question about what the previous kernel level was as it mentions 4.14.111. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1810215 Title: for Seagate USB drive enclosures, SAT (e.g. smartmontools, hdparm) works on kernel 4.13 but not on 4.15 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1810215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Nathan, thanks for the reply. I'm not sure what kernel was there before. I was expecting to see traces in /boot but the only references are to 4.14.133. Yes, the drives are Seagate 4TB ones, ID 0bc2:331a Thanks for the link to the known issues. I was looking at boot.ini so it seems I was heading in the right direction. I'm not sure if the copy I can see in /boot is active during the boot process or not, or if I need some additional steps to make that happen. I'm sure I can dig that out with the help of Google. I came to this page in a typically long and circuitous fashion after I noticed that the external drivers weren't spinning down anymore and discovering that hdparm wasn't working. Basic file IO was still ok. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1810215 Title: for Seagate USB drive enclosures, SAT (e.g. smartmontools) works on kernel 4.13 but not on 4.15 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1810215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I got hit by this after a power outage cycled my file servers and presumably activated a previous automatic kernel update (the servers normally stay up for months at a time). The kernel that is currently running is: Linux oban8 4.14.111-odroidxu4 #2 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 8 17:30:01 CEST 2019 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux The temporary work-around documented on the Smartmontools Wiki worked for me (thanks for the link!), now I have to figure out how to make the change persistent on these ARM based systems :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1810215 Title: for Seagate USB drive enclosures, SAT (e.g. smartmontools) works on kernel 4.13 but not on 4.15 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1810215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 125702] Re: casper-rw fs not cleanly unmounted on persistent live USB shutdown
Looks like I've run into the equivalent problem after doing a full install onto a USB stick (I got frustrated with live/persistent approach). After any shutdown -h the system reports that the root fs was not cleanly unmounted and does an fsck reboot. I'll try adding a sync/sleep to /etc/init.d/umountroot and see if that helps. Out of curiosity, why remount read only as opposed to just unmounting?

Hi, Could someone explain how to install 3.1.0-0301rc9-generic onto 11.10 (or point me at instructions).
