Title: system initialization with error: ata2: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
Post by: emil on December 15, 2022, 02:41:44 PM
Hello from Braizil.
Newbe, here.

When starting the system, the following messages appear:
[ 12.455142] ata2: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
[ 22.487141] ata2: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
[ 57.539126] ata2: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
[ 62.591133] ata2: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
[ 62.592391] ata2: reset failed, giving up

Is it possible to arrange?

Difficult to say what's going on with the information provided.
Has this symptom recently started on a previously working system ?
Could be a hardware error but need more information.

I noticed this only after installing some system updates.
But that was the same day I installed lite.
But before, when I was using UBUNTU, it also happened right after updating the system to install Inkscape.

Does the system halt (fail to complete boot) when you get these messages ?

Can you boot off another media to try to work out what ata2 might be referring to and run some disk checks ?
Try installing LL 5.8 perhaps ?

Taking a swing here, your profile says kernel 6 on an i5. I doubt this involves disk failure. It's probably because ata firmware is involved and the kernel can't address the disk features correctly. It is a rare but old time issue with Ubuntu when upgrading kernels after an existing install. Just my opinion, but if you're going to play with new kernels and don't understand things like pre-seeding firmware results will be unpredictable.

No problem with the system, it boots up "normally.

I can check the disk with the command "fsck". But the tutorial say "unmount the drive you want to check". Can you tell me how can I found that?

Sorry, I just checked, my kernel version is 5.15.0-56-generic

I really don't understand any of this, I am completely nub with linux.
Could you give me some tips?

OK, that's good.  How did you notice these messages ?
What exactly is the problem you are trying to solve here ?

In order to properly test your disks you need to boot from another media, like a USB stick but if your system boots ok you can run these commands to find if the ata2 message is referring to one of your disks.

Code: [Select]
udevadm info -q path -n /dev/sda

Looks like Linux Lite / is on sdb5. What is on sda1? Are you dual booting? Are you using an external or USB disk? If the Linux Lite system is booting and running the ata error messages may just be informative rather than consequential i/e a device may not be immediately connectable in the initial boot order but does connect later on. Do you have fast boot disabled in the UEFI settings if this computer was originally Windows?

I thought that those error messages were wrong and that it would be good to fix them. The messages appear at boot, they are the only messages I can see at boot.

Code: [Select]
udevadm info -q path -n /dev/sda/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.2/2-1.2:1.0/host1/target1:0:0/1:0:0:0/block/sda

How do I find out what is on sda1?
I am not dual booting, I only have Linux Lite on the laptop. I installed it with an external USB, but I don't need it anymore. Yes, it was windows originally.
I even google to try to find out if I have fast boot disabled in the UEFI, but I didn't find anything very friendly.

I don't know if it helps, but I typed sudo fdisk -l and the result:

Looking at your fdisk...
LL is running on the Hitachi - assuming the USB drive.
sdb1 - is a left over non needed...
sdb2/3/5 are the EFI and LL "/" partitions
*Most likely as @trinidad mentioned taking a moment to read the disk...


sda1 - EFI partition on the internal hard disk
sda2 - Windows partition; I'd assume C: due to the size... but??




Have you FULLY installed LL on to the computer (using the install process)? or are you still testing the Live Environment - aka booted the iso? or are you using the USB with persistence?
- If you dont know what I mean... Thats ok...
My assumption is you attempted to install LL and inadvertently installed onto the USB drive...


If we think this is the case - no worries we can get you back around and install onto the hard drive.




If you have any files you want to keep - back those up else where.

The Hitachi is the computer's hd. On usb I have Seagate (backup).
Ow .. have a windows partition? But I don't have windows anymore...
Yes, I completely installed the LL, I installed it through .iso with an usb .. but the usb is kept for safety, I read somewhere that it is good to keep it.

Ahhhh, did I install LL on the USB? I just restarted without the external hd (usb) and it started LL normally. What a scare! But no, I did not install the LL on the usb.  :022:

hhhm - ok good stuff - thinking it in another direction from @stevef  which hopefully helps in his direction..


With the USB disconnected and you reboot - Do you receive the error message still?
Also, if you do either the lsblk or fdisk, does the hitachi (internal disk) now show as sda?


My thought...
Perhaps with USB connected and it having an EFI directory, perhaps its cycling/reading taking a moment and generating the error....
If the error persists - perhaps not ...

If you are still getting similar messages please post the result of

journalctl -b | grep ata2
Code: [Select]

After any BIOS display, most new installs usually hide all the linux boot up messages with a splash screen.   If the splash screen is disabled there will be many messages scrolling past.

When exactly does the message you report appear ?

During boot up the system is checking for devices connected by ATA.
The Hitachi drive is found on ata1.
ata4 and ata5 appear to be unused.

For ata2, it tries a few times, then tries at a slower speed and then gives up but doesn't appear to log the port as down.

Does your system support removable media in any way ?
There's no CD/DVD drive being identified - does the system have one ?
Does the system have a slot for a memory card perhaps ?

From what you've told us so far, I don't think this is anything to worry about but it would be interesting to find out what's going on.

For ata2, it tries a few times, then tries at a slower speed and then gives up but doesn't appear to log the port as down.

Does your system support removable media in any way ?
Yes, I use an external USB hard drive without any problems.

There's no CD/DVD drive being identified - does the system have one ?
No, this laptop does not have a CD/DVD drive.

Yes, SD card, and it's working.

I really appreciate the info.
Yes, I agree... it would be nice to be able to understand what's going on, but apparently it's something complex.

Have you noticed if booting with/without a card in the SD slot makes a difference to the error message ?

If the error message appears to be associated with either state of a card being in or out, repeat several times to check if it is consistent.

It makes no difference, always the same message.

OK, I thought the SD card reader might be associated with ata2.

You have a couple things going on. The seagate backup disk is GPT because it's 2TB. The installed LL system 300GB onboard drive is DOS. The backup drive is looking for a Windows UEFI entry that isn't there anymore. As far as I know you can't run that backup drive in its current state after installing a Linux OS because it still needs a Windows boot manager. The missing ata initializing file for that drive is gone. Linux will still recognize the drive but it may or may not work for data storage. It is normally not considered Linux compatilbe. I would unplug the backup drive and REMOVE any BIOS entry noting or listing it, then reinstall Linux Lite to the onboard drive without the backup drive plugged in. That should properly designate the Linux drive as sda not sdb. "Possibly" making the backup drive Linux compatible will involve some other steps but that's not worth doing until you get the Linux system installed without the backup drive present.

But... BEFORE you do any of the above see if you can store and then retrieve a Linux file to and from the backup drive. If you can do that you may want to leave it as is. I doubt you will be able to, but it's worth trying. If the data partition is FAT32 and not NTFS it may still work. You may even be able partition a space on it for Linux.

By the way you may still be able to edit the backup drive EFI partition and boot windows from it if there is a full backup on it. (Windows live ent disk should work or even bcedit)

How do I find out what is associated with ata2?

Again, try to save a file from Linux Lite to the backup drive. The backup drive initialization file was Windows EFI which is no longer there as I expalined before.
