Subject: Infinite retries reading the partition table
Date: Wed, 29 Nov 2006 17:22:48 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <617182.73467.qm@web31807.mail.mud.yahoo.com> (raw)

Suppose reading sector 0 always reports an error,
sense key HARDWARE ERROR.

What I'm observing is that the request to read sector 0,
reading partition information, is retried forever, ad infinitum.

Does anyone have a patch to resolve this? (2.6.19-rc6)

Thanks,
    Luben
