I had a big trouble.



My os is Slackware,14.2,I have to backup a lot of data



2,5TB.



I have tried many methods: usb3,firewire,e-sata



with different control.



After some hours,sometimes minutes the system totally hang



no way to recover: power button,sysrq,the only way is to



cut-off the AC power.On console I cannot see any error message



because the keyboard is hanged.



I have tried different kernels,compiled by myself or precompiled slackware.



But no way



I have also change all dimms,and try memtest,no errors



but still hang



My hw is ASUS M5A97 R2.0 with 16GB of ram



I have to change my mobo?Or whatelse?



I forget the most important thing: the backup is on disk encrypted with luks.



Can be related to this?

  • Your system hangs when you are running a back up?

  • So it's capable of running memtest, but doesn't boot from the disk? Then the disk or disk controller can be the culprit...

Solution found.



I had a custom kernel,probably some strange settings make rsync hang



with the Slackware current kernel 4.4+ works fine,even with the 4.4.88



Slackware-14.2 kernel



With those kernels no problems,no hang.
