Can you reproduce this with any CD? Does this happen with later kernels? Any CD: yes. Later kernels: don't know. All I know is that this is what happens with the kernel shipped with test3 (2.4.22-1.2088.nptl). And if this kernel (as is) is going to be included in Fedora 1.0, it's not good. We really do need to hear back on whether new kernels resolve this or not; can you get the latest kernel from rawhide and test, please? Thanks! Alternatively, getting a confirmatory report from another user would be useful; perhaps another user who can reproduce this will be willing to test other kernels. But we can't resolve this blindfolded. :-) I upgraded the kernel to 2.4.22-1.2108.nptl, but without any luck (still getting the same result when mounting a CD) =( Has there been any progress on this bug? I am getting the same error using the same hardware but using Fedora Core. This should have been fixed a long time ago (before the final Fedora Core 1 kernel). Is it still happening in the latest errata kernel ? Hi... It's happening to me, with the latest errata kernel (2.4.22-1.2149.nptl), with the first disk of the Yarrow distribution (which I just used to install) and typing 'mount /mnt/cdrom'. Dell Inspiron 7500, CD-RW, Fedora Core 1, plain-jane workstation install from (repartitioned/reformatted) scratch yesterday. I've also had another intermittent symptom: the drive won't open, with either eject or a button press. Yes, this is still the case with Fedora Core 1, kernel 2.4.22-1.2149.nptl. Very annoying indeed :( this probably didnt get fixed for FC1 before it reached end-of-life, but FC2/3 should have this fixed. |
Description of problem: Trying to mount f.eg. any of the Severn test3 disks (that were fully mountable during installation!) hangs the kernel with the following infinite messages: Oct 22 23:09:25 citation kernel: ide-scsi: [[ 28 0 0 0 0 10 0 0 1 0 0 0 ] Oct 22 23:09:25 citation kernel: ide-scsi: expected 2048 got 4096 limit 2048 Oct 22 23:09:25 citation kernel: ide-scsi: The scsi wants to send us more data than expected - discarding data Oct 22 23:09:25 citation kernel: ide-scsi: [[ 28 0 0 0 0 10 0 0 1 0 0 0 ] Oct 22 23:09:25 citation kernel: ide-scsi: expected 2048 got 4096 limit 2048 Oct 22 23:09:25 citation kernel: ide-scsi: The scsi wants to send us more data than expected - discarding data ..... The device is a Matshita UJDA310 CD-RW on a Dell Latitude CPXj650 using ide-scsi emulation (hdc=ide-scsi passed on the boot line). It has worked fine with RH9, and as stated, during installation of Severn test3. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Mount a CD either manually (mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom) or automatically by just popping a CD in the drive 2. Watch the machine hang and eventaully, start swapping 3. Done Actual results: The device fails to mount the CD and the kernel starts spitting out messages Expected results: A mounted CD... Additional info: This is severe - don't know about other CD-RW drives, but judging from the amount of Dell Latitudes CPx machines out there there should be quite an amount of people who will not be able to use their CD drives.
