when trying to run ubuntu from the live cd or trying to install ubuntu, i am getting the following message:
[313.188000] ata2: (irq_stat 0x00000040, connection status changed)
[315.528000] ata2: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x40c0000 action 0x2 frozen.
the message just repeats again and again...
i don't have anything connected to the 2nd sata port. i have also tried different distro's and getting exactly the same error.
i have also tried the boot option pci=nomsi that someone suggested, but has not resolved the problem.
can anyone tell me what the error means?
i am wandering if the error is linked to the dvd-rw drive i have connected - it is a pioneer blue-ray player.
