For kicks, installed smartmontools, as suggested in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/229159 1. sudo smartctl -i /dev/sda3 = enabled 2. sudo smartctl -l error /dev/sda3 = no errors 3. sudo smartctl -H /dev/sda3 = passed 4. sudo smartctl -t short /dev/sda3; sudo smartctl -l selftest /dev/sda3 = completed without error
Executed first 3 commands again after another random "halt" and reboot, same outcome Also, tried to switch to CTRL-ALT-F1 session (and F2), and (this time at least) couldn't switch to spot any errors. My todo list corrupted again, lucky I backed up recently... -- Hard disk randomly "halts" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229968 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
