How to fix: ata7: com reset failed errno=-32?
Please be patient and guide me step by step i am a linux noob.
This error occurs when booting. Either that or my crypt' password page shows up and i can't put in the pw. However i can start ubuntu's recovery mode. When i tell him to repair packages he does so and asks me for the crypt pw on command line - then somewhere he has the errno -32 again but "tries after 8 seconds" and is running fine. Then i can start ubuntu normal from the recovery mode page. I also tried telling him to update grub, which doesn't affect anything.
To check the file system on your Ubuntu partition...
- boot to the GRUB menu
- choose Advanced Options
- choose Recovery mode
- choose Root access
- at the # prompt, type
sudo fsck -f /
- repeat the
fsck
command if there were errors - type
reboot
If for some reason you can't do the above...
- boot to a Ubuntu Live DVD/USB
- start
gparted
and determine which /dev/sdaX is your Ubuntu EXT4 partition - quit
gparted
- open a
terminal
window - type
sudo fsck -f /dev/sdaX
# replacing X with the number you found earlier - repeat the fsck command if there were errors
- type
reboot
In my case I had a problem with a SATA-connector. After I unplugged the device and plugged it back everything was fixed. Filesystem check shows no errors, everything is perfect.
