Public bug reported:
Hello, I have recently upgraded from dapper to edgy and currently
experiencing severe problems with one of my drives. I am using the
32-bit ubuntu version. This is my current setup:
Motherboard: ASUS K8V-SE Deluxe
CPU: 3200+ Athlon64 s754 newcastle
Ram: 1GB
HDDs: 320gb SATA /dev/sda, 80gb PATA /dev/hda, 200gb PATA /dev/hdb
My /etc/mtab:

/dev/hda is windows and I am currently not mounting it with ubuntu
I modified the UUID for /media/hdb1 to /dev/hdb because when mounting it
couldn't find the drive half the time. (Sorry but I foolishly took it out
instead of just commenting out the UUID string, not sure how to get it back
now).
Now the problem I am having is /dev/hdb1 is currently having errors here
and there. Some days I can boot up and it would mount fine. Sometimes it
would only mount as read-only, and other days it would display my
filesystem all over the place in an inconsistent manner. When fsck.ext3
is run, it keeps picking up inode errors all the time, and I don't know
why. The superblock is also getting corrupted on a regular basis and I
am using block 32768 all the time to fsck.ext3 the drive. I used some
SMART tools to check if the drive is dying but it seems to be all fine.
Sorry if udev is the wrong package to post this, it's either udev, ext3
or something else. Maybe teardown is not unmounting it properly? It's
odd how it only seems to affect one drive. Once the drive is clean and
it mounts, it works perfectly until the next time it happens when I boot
up. Dapper handled the drive fine, so I doubt the hard drive is at
fault.
