[Bug 578401] [NEW] K8 ECC error, lucid freezes when copying data from sata to pata

Mon May 10 18:10:35 UTC 2010

Public bug reported:

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx, but my system freezes randomly and
my caps/scroll lock light blink repeatedly. I can't see any errors in my
log files. This mostly happens when I try to copy big files from a sata
drive to a pata drive. If I disconnect the sata drive it seem to work
fine. On #ubuntu I was suggested to use netconsole to record the error,
this is what I've got:

I checked my hardware, and everything is okay. I never had problems with 8.04, so I think this is a kernel problem.
