Hello! I am sorry for asking such a vague question, but I think I am slowly going insane already.
When my system boots up, around after a minute of, well, starting everything up, my hard drive clicks and the system goes for a reboot. (I disassembled the system and confirmed that the sound indeed comes from the hard drive)
Yes, it's probably the "click of death" and all. What is interesting however, if I boot the system up from a USB drive, I can mount the hard drive and fully use it! Plus it worked completely fine just a few days ago.
I can read and write files, in fact, just wrote 4 GB and then read them back as they were.
I ran a few short SMART tests and a long one, no errors reported.
I also ran a full badblocks non-destructive read-write test for the night and still nothing wrong was reported.
BUT, once I chroot into the system that is installed on the hard drive, it clicks and reboots.
My guess is that some crucial space that is getting read/written during boot is now located on bad blocks. Maybe bad blocks are located on my UEFI partition (/dev/sda1), or on my swap partition (/dev/sda2)? I hope that someone more educated than me could make a guess too…
Would really appreciate any help, thank you very much in advance!
(Also yes I think this is my first HDD malfunctioning in my entire life)
