           Summary: ldm_validate_partition_table(): disk read fail
           Product: konqueror
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: engel59@earthlink.net


Version:           3.1.0 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-3mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-0.13mdk

ldm_validate_partition_table() Disk read fail appears after I installed \
Mandrake 9.1.

The "ldm_validate_partition_table(): disk read fail" was caused by my \
SanDisk SDDR-05a Compact Flash Card Reader. Since I didn't have a Compact \
Flash Card in the Reader the software kept trying to read from it until it \
timed out and allowed the system to continue loading.

The quick fix is to leave a Compact Flash Card in the Reader while booting \
up the system.

Two of my devices are listed as SCSI Devices in the Mandrake Control \
Center, under Hardware, Disk: sda = Buslink USB 2.0 External Hard Drive \
"/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc" sdb = SanDisk SDDR-05a USB 1.1 \
Compact Flash Card Reader "/dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/disc"

I did notice that the only way I could install Mandrake 9.1 was to unplug \
my Buslink Drive and reconnect it after the install.

My Buslink 2.0 External Hard Drive is connect up to a Buslink USB 2.0 \
5-Port PCI Card. 

I reinstalled Mandrake 9.1 one more time; this time I left the Buslink \
connected and left a Compact Flash Card in the SanDisk Reader. Everything \
installed correctly. _______________________________________________
