I've got an occasional catastrophic problem with a Dell Laptop,
and I'm hoping someone on this list can steer me to a possible
solution.
The system:
- Dell E7250 laptop, circa 2017
- i5 CPU
- 8 GBytes RAM (soldered in place... not a DIMM)
- 1 TByte M.2 SATA disk using ext4 file system
- Gentoo stable with "gentoo-sources" monolithic kernel
The Problem:
- Disk corruption which removes entire subdirectories, yielding
unstable behavior
- Problem recurs every few months, unpredictably
Other Data:
- I'm a long-time Gentoo user. I have several other Gentoo
systems and have NEVER had disk problems. I don't think it's a
driver-related problem.
- Does not seem to be heat-related since the errors don't seem
to be triggered by extended operation
- All diagnostics are good (Dell internal diagnostics in ROM,
Memtest-86, etc)
- FSCK can usually repair the damage
- Laptop is lightly used and rarely transported
Diagnostic Work so Far:
- Swapped M.2 disk
- Ran Memtest-86 for hours
Anybody got any ideas what may be happening and what I might be
able to do about it?
TIA!
Casey
