read on /dev/sda” during a CentOS text-mode installation? up vote 1 down vote favorite I'm trying to install CentOS 5.7 on an HP Proliant DL380 G5 (with an HP P400 Smart Array RAID controller) and am getting the following error during the text mode installer: ERROR: pdc: reading /dev/sda[Input/output error] Input/output error during read on /dev/sda To me, this sounds like either a faulty drive or unsupported hardware. That being said, the server appears input/output error linux to be fine (I'm in the process of running diagnostics) and I see it listed on the RedHat HCL: https://hardware.redhat.com/show.cgi?id=228312 Is there anything else I can be checking? centos redhat hard-drive hp-proliant share|improve this question edited Jun 15 '12 at 18:06 Dmitri Chubarov 1,8811820 asked Jun 15 '12 at 17:44 Mike B 3,9711967112 2 A proliant probably has a raid controller. Is the raid array initialized? –Dmitri Chubarov Jun 15 '12 at 17:49 @DmitriChubarov It does indeed - HP P400 Smart Array RAID. Can you please clarify what you mean by initialize? –Mike B Jun 15 '12 at 17:52 1 Mike, When you set up a new server, on the first boot you enter the RAID BIOS and configure the array. –Dmitri Chubarov Jun 15 '12 at 17:53 3 See this array configuration guide –Dmitri Chubarov Jun 15 '12 at 17:57 @DmitriChubarov Perfect. I'll check it out. Thank you. –Mike B Jun 15 '12 at 18:20 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote accepted The HP ProLiant DL380 G5 should have an internal Smart Array P400 RAID controller. That controller uses the CCISS block driver under Red Hat/CentOS 5.x. This would present your logical devices to the OS as /dev/cciss/c0dXpY, where X is the controller numb

Given the advanced age of that PC, I would strongly suspect that it is your 2nd, 3rd or 9th machine in your stable, so you could go with FC3 on some other hardware. However, I would look around for another more recent machine that is faster, so you can make a new home for your hard drive. -----Original http://serverfault.com/questions/399236/why-am-i-getting-input-output-error-during-read-on-dev-sda-during-a-centos-te Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces redhat com [mailto:fedora-list-bounces redhat com] On Behalf Of Peter Gloor Sent: Friday, March 25, 2005 12:03 PM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Re: Anaconda: i/o error during read on /dev/hda Jon, thanks for responding. Yes it is old HW, but as I mentioned I'm sure the problem can be solved. But I don't know how. May https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-list/2005-March/msg05599.html be someone out there knows. I already tried to upgrade from SuSE 8.0 to SuSE 9.2. That seems to work, so I will rather stick with SuSE. I wanted to switch to Fedora, because I recently worked with Fedora Core 3 in a course and found it to be much easier to configure than SuSE, at least when it comes to non-standard configurations.

Advertisement Vyomgrisham Thread Starter Joined: Jan 27, 2011 Messages: 7 I have an Emachines D725 series laptop with a seagate 250 GB hard drive.I have been trying to install Ubuntu Netbook 10.04 from my flash drive ( tried http://www.makeuseof.com/answers/install-red-hat-enterprise-linux-53-hp-proliant-dl380g6/ with CD too...no luck ).The boot order is set to detect USB first. This is the error message I get "Input/output error during read on /dev/sda" while installing Ubuntu 10.04 on my hard drive. On clicking Retry, The installation shows 15 output error % completed and returns another error " The ext4 file system creation in partition 5 of SCSI (0,0,0) (sda) failed. The Ubuntu runs perfectly from the pen drive and the disk utility which I ran from Ubuntu showed my disk as healthy ( the utility was not able to format the hard drive either... ). I was able to install windows XP on the same hard drive later after formatting it.It seems there is nothing wrong with my hard drive as output error during even running chkdsk didnt bring out anything.I am not sure if I missing out anything here...any help would be much appreciated.

Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) is the latest version available until April when a new release 11.04 is scheduled. Prior to attempting to install Ubuntu, it is necessary to create a partition on your disk. If you entire disk is already formatted for WinXP on an NTFS file system, you need to repartition the disk and create at least say a 10-20GB or more partion for EXT4 in which to install Ubuntu. If you don't setup the EXT4 partition prior to attempting to install Ubuntu - that could be the cause of your I/O problems. From what you describe, I would boot up from your USB, and then use the GParted partition editor to repartition your 250GB harddrive to create the EXT4 partition to receive Ubuntu Netbook for dual-boot with WinXP or for the entire partition which would wipe WinXP out on the harddrive. Then proceed with the installation. -- Tom lotuseclat79, Jan 31, 2011 #2 Vyomgrisham Thread Starter Joined: Jan 27, 2011 Messages: 7 Thanks for your reply , Tom.

Upon installing, rebooting my machine it was missing the operating system. Tried to install again and I got this error: input/output error during read on dev/cciss/c0d0. I have used two copies of the RHEL 5.3 CDs and my machine still misses an operating system. Would anyone be kind enough to give me a solution? Ads by Google 3 answers Comments are Closed Jeffery Fabish September 1, 2011 at 6:59 am It sounds like you didn't install GRUB properly. I have minimal experience with Redhat, but it appears this fixes the problem. Can you boot from the RHEL disk and chose "rescue", then run these commands: root (hdx,y) setup (hd0) Poly September 1, 2011 at 9:22 am THANKS Jeffery let me try it out, Will let you know the outcome Thanks.
