OK, so I recently did a fresh install of Linux Mint. After letting it just run for a few days just on the SSD partitions (/ and /home) I added the HDD drive mounted to /home. Ran good for a couple hours then suddenly did a hard reboot on it's own and stuck as it went into code 90 with the fans in high gear.
After getting it shut down and restarted did some looking a round and code 90 is a booting error. I rebooted again in the bios to make sure my boot order there was ok and went back into the OS.
What Im thinking is, when I added the HDD I edited fstab with default and 0 0 boot and nothing else. is the 0 0 boot what caused the hard reboot and error? Should I edit that to 0 3? Or perhaps change or added orders to default line?
This is my current fstab, as I think this is the problem:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=525cce6e-84d3-42e6-a636-26e5aa751a08 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
# /home was on /dev/sda2 during installation
UUID=5ec02215-90b3-41e5-8ce3-431d1b1ff952 /home ext4 defaults 0 2
/swapfile none swap sw 0 0
#/Data on HDD mounted to /home/Data

Re: Motherboard code 90 error after adding second drive
By comment out I assume you mean remove/delete the swap entry line from the text?

I am not able to edit now for some reason. I try to save it and Save is greyed out. Save As just tells me it's a read only.

To edit fstab do the following:
in Terminal..
sudo su
enter your password
then type :
nano /etc/fstab
then comment out the swap line then hit Ctrl-O to save then Ctrl-X to exit
then type exit x2 to get back to desktop then reboot and see what happens.

To "comment out" means to change the line into a comment. In this case, put a # symbol at the beginning of the line:Snagletooth wrote: ⤴Thu Jan 24, 2019 3:23 am By comment out I assume you mean remove/delete the swap entry line from the text?
Code: Select all
# /swapfile none swap sw 0 0
