(Sorry buy I my ISP e-mail went down so I have no idea if these got through or if any nice people replied so please bear with this if you've seen it before, thanks)
I have a USB disk drive caddy and it gets no /dev entry either. With this one though if I plug it in at boot time the boot sequence just stops after USB Storage [OK]. <Ctrl><Alt><Del> still works but I have found no other way of getting the boot sequence to continue normally. If I plug it in after boot usbview shows it as a Quick-ServUSBIDE and harddrake2 shows it as an SL11R-IDE [IDE-BRIDGE]. The Information panel shows it as "Vendor: Scan Logic Corp.", "Bus: USB", "Bus Location: 0:2", "module: usb-storage" and "Media class:" However, try as I might I can find no way of getting to the disk the other side of the IDE bridge. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
