i have only included stable-tree, but this should work
git fetch torvalds/master #maybe torvalds:master
git merge v4.18-rc3 #merge the tag not the branch
my repo also contains a master-branch at rc1 so merging “master” will not lead to expected results
have you tried sata with my last changes?
msze@dvig0472:~/BPI-R2-4.14$ git fetch torvalds/master
fatal: ‘torvalds/master’ does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
same for torvalds:master
msze@dvig0472:~/BPI-R2-4.14$ git remote -v

SATA I will try this afternoon
Okay then try
git fetch linux
msze@dvig0472:~/BPI-R2-4.14$ git fetch linux
fatal: ‘linux’ does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
git fetch linus
First value in git remote -v should be name of remote repo.this depends on how you’ve added the remote repo.
for comparision here my git remote-config
$ git remote -v

here i use git fetch stable
Working. I have produced RC3 kernel. Will try it at home

Both drives are mounted. Frank, I’m you big FAN !!!
Have you tried without the above patch?
Yes. Only your kernel + Linux 4.18 RC3 patch
Unfortunately, there are a lot of I/O errors. I will check another kernel tomorrow
Then try the patch above 
So far so good. With this patch is much better. None errors so far.
sorry, still errors.
This is my dmesg included
IO_errors.txt (10,1 KB)
If it’s important I’m using ATX power supply to power 2 HDD WD Red 3TB drives
Ok then we need vendor-support for this issue. @Ryder.Lee @garywang any ideas?
maybe you can try this patchset (4 patches): https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10500639/
Have you tried another drive/cable?
The patch does not work:
msze@dvig0472:~/BPI-R2-4.14$ patch -p1 < ./v3-1-4-PCI-mediatek-fixup-mtk_pcie_find_port-logical.patch
patching file drivers/pci/controller/pcie-mediatek.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 337. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED – saving rejects to file drivers/pci/controller/pcie-mediatek.c.rej
I will try another cable and couple of 2,5 inch drives this evening
I exchanged drive and cable and so far (copied only 6GB) so good. No errors. I will try this evening to copy something about 30-40GB.
If it success I will try to mkfs,ext4 on one 3TB drive and then check it again.
Sounds good…then change 1 back…maybe only the drive to figure out a cable problem. please tell me if it is working without the pcie-patch…
and please check if your sata-socket is soldered correctly like jofri wrote here: Searching testing people for hdmi + wifi in Kernel 4.16
You’re right my sata sockets (both) need resoldering. When I touch them the’re moving …
Have you resoldered sata sockets with success?
not yet. I’m waiting for Sinovoip decision … (my banana is still under warranty)
