[Bug 810791] Re: Softreset failed (device not ready) with Gigabyte motherboard
I had a similar problem. It turned out to be a bad cd-rom drive (or a bad IDE-to-SATA adapter that the drive was using). I disconnected both. The problem disappeared. I installed a new SATA drive. The problem has not re-appeared. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810791 Title: Softreset failed (device not ready) with Gigabyte motherboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/810791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Apologies for not responding sooner (I get waaay too many emails and have filtered automated mailings like the ones sent by launchpad to Gmail labels which generally never get looked at). After upgrading to the next LTS release (12.04) I believe I stopped seeing this bug. Upgraded since to latest LTS release of 14.04, and still not having this issue anymore. Just for the record, I believe this can be called fixed! ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810791 Title: Softreset failed (device not ready) with Gigabyte motherboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/810791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 810791] Re: Softreset failed (device not ready) with Gigabyte motherboard
James Cuzella, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. ** Tags added: lucid maverick needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810791 Title: Softreset failed (device not ready) with Gigabyte motherboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/810791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 810791] Re: Softreset failed (device not ready) with Gigabyte motherboard
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected running-unity ** Description changed: I originally reported this in Bug 285392. However, I'm not sure that this is the same bug, or a different one with the same symptom. I am seeing this problem on a Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2 motherboard. I have tried changing the BIOS setting for both AHCI and IDE modes. I get the same error upon boot. After a reboot I have been seeing this error randomly all the time. Sometimes it seems to work ok, sometimes not. I have done 2 dist-upgrades from Lucid (10.04.2 LTS ) to Maverick ( 10.10 ) to Natty ( 11.04 ). This bug has been present in all of these versions of Ubuntu. Boot messages follow: The disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present Continue to wait; or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery [ 1.740026] ata3: softreset failed (device not ready) [ 1.740032] ata6: softreset failed (device not ready) [ 1.740058] ata5: softreset failed (device not ready) [ 1.740062] ata4: softreset failed (device not ready) init: udevtrigger main process (467) terminated with status 1 init: udevtrigger post-stop process (471) terminated with status 1 init: udevmonitor main process (466) killed by TERM signal udevd[453]: specified group 'camera' unknown Ever since Lucid, there are 2 problems with this motherboard that I've been having: 1) It doesn't seem to boot correctly from the first HDD if USB-HDD or CDROM are anywhere above in the boot priority list 2) Every so often I still get the softreset and The disk drive for /home is not ready yet or not present errors (This is random.. it's usually /home, /, or whatever other partition happens to complain). AHCI vs IDE modes in the BIOS don't change anything. I'm guessing it's a Gigabyte motherboard issue, or something to do with the ATI SB7x0 chipset. So far I haven't tried compiling a new kernel with CONFIG_SATA_PMP=n yet... but that seems like it might work...
