Hi, So if the power light was blinking, this indicates suspend (S3 state). However, when resuming from suspend you should NOT see a POST; the system should just resume into the OS without "rebooting", which is what you seem to have observed.
This is strange behavior for sure, but to me it appears hardware- related, not something triggered by checkbox. Despite the drive's young age, hard drives can and do fail (I've had server-grade drives fail after a couple of *days*). I'm glad that in this instance you managed to get the drive accepted for replacement, with the (admittedly much more serious) data loss left as a consequence. I'd be interested in a manual suspend/resume test, once you get the new drive installed and working. Either suspend, and then resume the system, manually, or use a command: sudo pm-suspend suspends and will require you to tap the power button to wake up sudo rtcwake -m mem -s 60 will suspend and auto-wake after 60 seconds, this is similar to what checkbox does but shouldn't be harmful to the system in any way. Please let me know how things behave after this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886573 Title: Checkbox-gtk System Test destroyed SSD drive on suspend test To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/checkbox/+bug/886573/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
