Hold on, do I understand you correctly - you're now getting the same errors under 2.4 that you previously got with 2.6? Why did this not happen before? Are you sure the drive is not damanged? Can you try with another one? > WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured So this is 2.4, not 2.6, right? > "WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured"...

I've heard some reports of problems with ehci, but it's strange that you're gettin them with uhci. There's one thing you could do: temporarily move the uhci module from /lib/modules/... away, reboot and see if it uses the ehci modules and whether that works. And then move the ehci module away and try the same with uhci. Also, can you show me the output of: lspci > What should I do next?

I doubt it'd make a difference. > Or is my drive physically wrecked? Do you have another drive you can test? But you initially said that 2.4 was working fine. From your current message it seems this is no longer the case.
