Hello
On my linux box, I use a pci adaptor to provide sata port because my
motherboard doesn't
have serial ata port. My sata adaptor is a :
# lspci
...
02:0b.0 RAID bus controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6421 IDE RAID
Controller (rev 50)
...
#
When the system boots, the sata disk is well recognized. I can use fdisk
and mkfs to build
a filesystem without any problems
But, when I try to mount this filesystems, I can see these errors in the
/var/log/messages
kernel: EXT3-fs error (device sdc2): ext3_check_descriptors: Inode table
for group 4 not in group (block 99331)!
kernel: EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted!
If I use mkfs.ext3 command instead mkfs, I can't see this message but only :
kernel: VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev sdc1
fdisk -l /dev/sdc gives me:
Disk /dev/sdc: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x198a1989
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdc1 1 60789 488287611 83 Linux
/dev/sdc2 60790 121601 488472390 83 Linux
this disk has been worked well on another machine. Is there any problem with
the sata_via kernel modules:
[root at mercure ~]# lsmod | grep sata
sata_uli 7940 1
sata_via 10756 0
libata 132328 6
