Bug Description
Trying to install from the preview release cd(and the current cd from 9/18),
the installer fails when it can not find modules for various hardware
connected via pci and ide.
The list of modules it can't find is:
i810-tco, e100, ide-mod, ide-probe-mod, ide-detect, ide-floppy
These modules are available from the kernel used on the cd, and should be
quite common. I have used the Ubuntu livecd, and the hardware was detected
without issue.

IDE devices are not initialised until ide-generic is loaded or has been loaded
before.

Do you have another Linux system where it works with the original BIOS setting
using the SATA driver?

It's all classic IDE. Maybe the SATA parts are discovered correctly (I don't
have any SATA device to test).
The Device Manager says it's a Intel 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) Ultra ATA 100
Controller (Intel Mainboard).
Devices are invisible until I start ide-generic, neither ide-disk nor ata_piix
work without ide-generic.

Can you try kernel 2.6.10-25.2 and/or the latest set of daily CD builds?

Same result. No IDE devices, neither as SCSI (through ata_piix) nor by loading
"ide-cd", "ide-disk". ide-generic makes them visible to ide-cd, etc.
While ata_piix does detect my two SATA ports, it does not detect the other two
PATA ports.
Matt Zimmerman (mdz) wrote : | #74 |
On IRC, I asked Nico to try Chuck's ata_piix.ko which should have been
equivalent to what was in -25.1 (i.e., #define ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI #undef
ATA_ENABLE_PATA), and he confirmed that it fixed his problem, while he still has
problems with -25.2. I have no idea why, since he's dealing with disks, and not
CD-ROMs, but since we're currently planning to roll that fix in post-preview, it
should at least fix that problem.

I had done the kernel updates to -25.1 and .25.2 without even thinking... I was
so happy when the #define ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI was put in, since before that I was
having to compile a custom kernel after installing so that my SATA DVD-BURNER
would wrok. But now with those last two kernel upgrades, my drive has stopped
working as well. Didn't notice until just now when I was about to burn a DVD.
There is quite a big patch from the libata maintaner that I've found for 2.6.11.
Is there any chance we could get that put together, so this problem won't
continue? Though I'm thinking we'll be waiting until after Hoary for that,
since Hoary is in feature freeze, right?
Pyroman[FO] (pyroman) wrote : | #76 |
I'd also like to say I'm seeing this exact problem on a Dell Inspiron 6000
laptop, and the workaround posted does not work. The installer cannot detect
the DVD drive and it can't install.
Mark Shuttleworth (sabdfl) wrote : | #77 |
Folks, we know this is a serious kernel issue and will not release Hoary with
this bug. We had to revert to this KNOWN bug just before preview, because the
fix for this bug that we had, introduced silent data corruption on some CDs. The
kernel team assure me we can nail this one. Please test ongoing kernel updates
and report success / failure.

Do the daily snapshots update the installer boot kernel as well as the kernel it
eventually installs? I am trying to help test but I'm unsure if the kernel in
the installer for daily snapshot 3-12-05 is the -26 kernel as is listed in the
list, or if the -26 kernel is installed after the installer runs and the
installer still has -4.
Pyroman[FO] (pyroman) wrote : | #80 |
I went back to the daily CD for 3-8-05 that had the original fix and booted,
then used the daily CD from 3-12-05 for the install. So after I get Ubuntu
installed, -26 has the CD and HDD detected fine, and when I upgraded to -27 and
rebooted it still worked fine. So it seems for me -26 and -27 fix the problem.

rom's and therefore a clean ubuntu installation cannot be performed and finish (as it did with array 6)... :\

Oy. The log snippet that you're showing is a side effect of the brief period
where the sata driver was capable of dealing with the older piix chipsets. It's
not related to the rest of this bug, though.
If you haven't done much on the box, installing with a new snapshot, or the
array 7 CD will be the simplest fix.
Otherwise, you'll need to edit /etc/mkinitrd/
piix
ide-disk
ide-generic
Then reinstall the newer kernel. This should allow your system to boot with the
newer kernel.
Once you have the system up, you can safely remove those lines again, and future
upgrades will detect the root driver correctly.
If you have further issues related to this, please open a new bug.
Tks,
Jeff Bailey

ide1: I/O resource 0x170-0x177 not free.

.. but they do not affect the detection and file-copying proccess. I'll do a

also work under a freshly installed system and post the result here too :)

Sorry, folks, but I have similar behavior with the install RC dated 2005-03-30
02:49. My config:
AMD64, 1 HDD as PATA secondary master, USB CD (Sony DRX-500ULX), USB keyboard
and mouse, no ATAPI CD, no floppy, SATA onboard.
It fails to load ide-{mod,
It goes through language and keyboard fine, but can't find/mount the CD it just
booted from. There is a device file that gets created and destroyed when I
plug/unplug the USB cable to the CD.
Same behavior whether or not SATA is disabled in BIOS.
I just tried it with the daily release CD for 2005-04-04, same problem
still...maybe no surprises there since the MD5SUM for that file matches that for
the RC. You guys should make sure that the dates on the dailies as listed on
the download web pages match the dates on the files when they're downloaded. I
just wasted a lot of time downloading and testing that daily, which just
duplicates the RC from last week.

Those messages are confusing but normal, and the installer only displays them to

Regardless, it still fails to find or mount the CD, and therefore to install
ubuntu. When I go to VC2 and type:
mkdir /tmp/foo
mount -r /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /tmp/foo
It says:
mount: Mounting /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 on /tmp/foo failed: Invalid argument
There's nothing new on VC4 when I do that. It also won't mount my thumb drive,
same error.
When I tell the installer screen on VC1 to try mounting it again, the error is:
Apr 4 19:40:52 cdrom-detect: CDROM-mount failed (error=1):
device=
It does that twice, with the usual messages about retrying, unmounting, and
giving up.
I tried mounting the device file that the cdrom0 link points to directly, same
error. Ditto for the thumb drive.

If the device file appears, but doesn't work, then yours is a different bug.
Please open a new one.

I actually still suffer from this problem, not only with Ubuntu but also with Fedora(and Enterprise), SUSE, Debian, etc.
Information is loaded from the CD and then it can't detect both devices.
The only active system now is windows so can't do any analysis on the problem.
I tried all the solutions that are available on different forums(and the whole list here and they all don't work).

High Priority ?
This problem is a subset of 85578.
Apparently first identified 2 1/2 years ago and still not fixed Is anyone at Ubuntu really concerned?
Fedora, KNOPPIX and Mepis don't have this problem.

The original bug here is that ATAPI drives were not being detected by libata. That issue was fixed by enabling ATAPI in the libata header.
If people are still having issues, they are need to file separate bug reports. Most likely it is a case of the PATA/SATA driver not being present, so include lspci -vv and lspci -vvn output for your system.

Ben,
Please read 85578 from the beginning.
Note the material I have already supplied.
Maybe the problem is in 'the installer'.
Anyways, _lots_ of Ubuntu people have this problem.
I suspect Fedora, Knoppix and I _know_ Mepis people
_don't_ have this problem. I'd like my Ubuntu to
work as well as my Mepis.
Respectfully,
yeti

If Mepis detects these drives then it should be straightforward for us
to make sure we do the same.

Thanks for your concern, Mark.
FYI, my version of the 8196 complaint, and some
supporting data are set forth in 85578.
My problem is probably peculiar to Gigabyte
motherboard and use of SATA primary with ATAPI
secondary.

That bug is open and assigned to Ben for investigation. Please direct any
further comments there. As Ben explained, this bug is about an older
problem which has been fixed, and any similar issues are unrelated and need
to be addressed separately.
Thanks,

Is this a default installation (booting from the CD and pressing enter at the
prompt), or did you pass some options at the isolinux prompt?
Those modules are in fact not present, but they are also not needed, and should
not cause the installation to fail.
