Have you tried just mounting the /dev/sdX1 partition (check the log files to see where it ends up, sda1, sdb1 or sdc1 or whatever)? If that doesn't work do you have SCSI Disk support?
Yes, I've tried mounting it. The mount process hangs in uninterruptible
sleep. Yes, I do have SCSI support, and the USB floppy works properly
(although for some reason it maps to eight scsi devices--/dev/sda and
/dev/sg2-8). Here's a typical message log for when the SanDisk device is inserted:
Dec 12 13:27:14 fmtcwp1 kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.7-6.4, assigned address 5
Dec 12 13:27:14 fmtcwp1 kernel: scsi2 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
Dec 12 13:27:14 fmtcwp1 kernel: Vendor: Generic Model: STORAGE DEVICE Rev: 1.25
Dec 12 13:27:14 fmtcwp1 kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Dec 12 13:27:14 fmtcwp1 kernel: Attached scsi removable disk sdb at scsi2, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
Dec 12 13:27:14 fmtcwp1 kernel: SCSI device sdb: 256000 512-byte hdwr sectors (131 MB)
I've tried mounting it from /dev/sdb and /dev/sdb1 with various options; mount always hangs and can't be killed.
Sounds like PeterB (later in this thread) has had similar experience.

I have been trying to get a SanDisk Cruzer Mini flash drive working under SuSE 8.2. I am having the following problem:
When I insert the device, it is detected by the USB system, and shows up in /proc/bus/usb/devices with correct info and serial number. However, in /proc/scsi/scsi, it is listed as:
Host: scsi2 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: Generic Model: STORAGE DEVICE Rev: 1.25 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
It is not auto-mounted (I don't suppose it should be in SuSe??). When I run sg_scan -i, it lists devices /dev/sg1 through /dev/sg8 as "Sony USB-FDU", and then hangs. ps shows the "sg_scan" process in state "D" (uninterruptible sleep). There is also another process, "[scsi_eh_2]" in state "DW". Of course, neither process can be killed short of rebooting.
Has anyone else had/solved this problem, or can offer advice??
All recent SuSe patches have been installed, including kernel 2.4.20-4GB.
