"Failed to generate scan order" in Trisquel 7 #59

Closed ghost closed 7 years ago

ghost commented 7 years ago

I'm a home user, not a professional. Trisquel 7. Diskscan 0.13-1 from Trisquel repo.

$ sudo diskscan /dev/sdc1 diskscan version unknown-1104c45

I: Validating path /dev/sdc1 I: Opened disk /dev/sdc1 sector size 512 num bytes 7797735424 I: Scanning disk /dev/sdc1 E: Failed to generate scan order

Thank you.

Can you please try to run it with -vvv for verbosity? As in: sudo diskscan -vvv /dev/sdc1

Here you are.

$ sudo diskscan -vvv /dev/sdc1 diskscan version unknown-1104c45

V: Verbosity set V: High verbosity set V: Very high verbosity set I: Validating path /dev/sdc1 I: Opened disk /dev/sdc1 sector size 512 num bytes 7797735424 I: Scanning disk /dev/sdc1 V: Using buffer of size 65536 V: latency stride is 217571 E: Failed to generate scan order

I see that you are using an older version (roughly diskscan 0.13) can you please try the latest version? There was at least one fix for such an issue since then.
