[SOLVED] HHD warnings while booting

Hi,

i get these messages while booting and they destroy the "look" of the normal boot messages:

[   19.250505] sd 9:0:0:0: [sde] Attached SCSI disk

My fstab, regarding these three disks, looks like this:

/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SWD_10EAVS_ExternalWD-WCAU48911006-part1 /home/sxe/daten/daten_1TB ext3 defaults,noatime,users,exec 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SWD_Ext_HDD_1021_WCAZA1723679-part1 /home/sxe/daten/daten_2TB ext3 defaults,noatime,users,exec 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD5000KS-00MNB0_WD-WCANU2365992-part1 /home/sxe/daten/spiele_500MB ntfs-3g defaults,noatime,users,exec 0 0

As u can see, i use the disk id to mount the hdds because they are all external devices and i want to mount them always in the same place.

Maybe thats a problem?

Does anyone know, how to avoid these messages / warnings? They don't hurt but i would like to avoid them.

thx

-- Andy

Re: [SOLVED] HHD warnings while booting

You cna usually silence the messages by adding 'quiet' on the kernel command line:

kernel /vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/bf1d191b-0f0d-4961-bd67-4d023a2e5873 quiet ro

When pasting code, please use [ code ] tags https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

like this

It makes the code more readable and more convenient to scroll through.

Re: [SOLVED] HHD warnings while booting

Hi karol,
i fixed the code tags.

Thx for the info about the quiet parameter but does someone else know the root of this problem?

Re: [SOLVED] HHD warnings while booting

I guess these things are USB disks? If so, then probably the interface doesn't support all commands that the kernel is sending to it, so you'll get notifications about that.
