I have been just been hit by this issue, with the exact same messages as the OP. This is on Dell E6410 2 year old with Ubuntu 12.04 completely updated.
The system boots but it is so slow it is useless. I'm trying to report a bug from the system but is is so slow that it is becoming almost impossible, I started with the ubuntu-bug but I will try to do it without the GUI and attach the files The new bug is bug 1002670 , after 45 minutes I have been able to send it from the affected system. If this is is a bug it is really serious in my opinion. If anybody knows of a workaround to stop the kernel checking the disk and make the system usable... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550559 Title: hdd problems, failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/550559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
