Comment 3 for bug 58284

I also have logical block error since 7.04, now i am using 7.10 same problems, i tried to use GoS, being the same Ubuntu base has the same error during boot-up (successfully installed ubuntu after i removed the drive, and attach the drive later) or using live-cd/alternative error occurs. Also tried on Xubuntu.

It happens on a specific old disk drive, a seagate barracuda. I have 2 of them both slave drive, one 40gb and and a 30gb, on a different computer, a celeron2.0 and a pentium4.

Removing the disk drive will fix it, but not a solution, since i need the additional disk space.
The error is "long & repetitive" and will drag the loading time too long up to 5-10 minutes
But after that it will load up in the end, and the Disk drive is detected and working.
But sometimes it will hang up on other computer that has the same error.

GreenOS (Ubuntu 7.10)
