I have a problem with the hard drive connected to my setup. When I connect the HDD which is damaged, and try to bring up my system, I get some error messages continuously on my console saying
After some time, the system boots up well. Whenever I try to execute some command related to HDD, it is struck.
How can I avoid the delay that is being taken initially during bootup?
Is there any way in the driver code where we can say kernel not to probe for the HDD if it is not able to recognize it well? Please help me...
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Sai
