I was able to reproduce this bug with the latest updates. I am copying files from an external USB disk using the FAT32 filesystem to an internal ATA disk with the EXT4 filesystem (SATA disk on PATA controller).
I will run fsck on both partitions to make sure there are no error that show up. If there are I will attempt to fix them. The only thing special about the output of my cp -vr (as requested) was that the copy did not happen in alphabetical order, It started at a folder which begins with the letter F and then skipped to k then J then S, copying file sporadically. I expected it would copy all the folders in alphabetical order. In nautilus I noticed that an 7.8GB copy reported at: 3:01pm - 100.7MB of 7.8GB -aprox 4 hours left (542 KB/sec) 3:29pm - 342.5MB of 7.8GB -aprox 12 hours left (176.5 KB/sec) 3:49pm - 501.6MB of 7.8GB -aprox 13 hours left (161.0 KB/sec) 4:05pm - 632.3MB of 7.8GB -aprox 13 hours left (156.9 KB/sec) 4:35pm - 846.7MB of 7.8GB -aprox 13 hours left (151.5 KB/sec) 5:14pm - 1.2GB of 7.8GB -aprox 13 hours left (146.9 KB/sec) I noticed that although I am not using my computer for anything else, transfer go slower over time. In my experience, it just stops somewhere in the middle and never finishes. I expected that the speed would be consistent if I did not slow down my computer with other processes. -- [Lucid] Copying multiple files causes "Input/output error" and "No such file or directory" errors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551110 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
