Re: [parisc-linux] HP B132L hangs

Hi!
In the last few days the B132l I use as DSL router completely hung 3 times. Every time requiring a power cycle to revive it. It is running Debian testing with kernel 2.4.18-hppa.
To test the machine I tried to compile a new kernel. After compiling a few files everything hung and spit out the following messages:

... and so on and so forth ...
The power seitch does nothing, only power cycling helps. I tried compiling the kernel again with the same results...
What do these messages mean? Is the hd defective or is it some problem with the scsi bus?
Yes it looks like a disk becoming defective. The best way to be sure is to use a hp cdrom containing Diagnostic tools (iirc the last hpux support + would contains it). This cd is bootable and contains tools allowing you test your disk.
If you have another system on which you can connect your suspected disk you can also try a dd cmd like: dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0txd0 of=/dev/null bs=2048k (where you replace /dev/rdsk/c0txd0 by the actual disk path)
The machine worked flawlessly for half a year... I have no idea what went wrong!
It seems to confirm your suspition (i have to manage remotely some 300 hp server: a few b132, b180, b2000, A500, K250, L, N and a lot of D; and the most peaces we have to replace are disk becoming defective) 

hth,
