[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death

[Dan Halbert]

Lucid Lynx Beta1 does not include this fix, because it was assembled
before the fix was released. I successfully installed a recent daily
netbook build of Lucid (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/daily-
live/) on a Dell Mini 9 with a stock 4GB STEC SSD. The build I used was
created after the fix was released. Though I did not have the reported
problem, I did have peculiar, similar symptoms with karmic and after.

The final test for those of you with problem SSD's, it seems to me, is
to install from of the daily-live builds (or wait for Beta2). That will
require no patching during the install, and should just work.

Before I installed, I booted from a USB stick and did a secure erase of
the SSD (see #211 above), which only took a short time.
