Hi all, I wrote to the list about sony micro vault 128 usb storage. Now I have it working in my LM 8.2 thanks to Todd with modprobe sd_mod. Now I have tested it in my LM 9.0 computer and I presume that we have a little problem with drakupdate_fsta. I wrote in /etc/modules.conf this line: alias /dev/sda sd_mod This is working ok in LM 8.2. But when I plugged the Sony Micro Vault to the usb port, and when I did "ls /dev/sda" I observed something like this in my /var/log/messages: ----- Jan 16 00:01:38 localhost kernel: SCSI device sda: 256000 512-byte hdwr sectors (131 MB) Jan 16 00:01:38 localhost kernel: sda: Write Protect is off Jan 16 00:01:38 localhost kernel: /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0: p1 p2 p3 p4 Jan 16 00:01:38 localhost kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered.

My computer was in a loop, and when I ran "top", I discovered a program which was running over an over again eating 50% of cpu time: drakupdate_fsta. How I stoped the loop? I should rename /usr/sbin/drakupdate_fsta to drakupdate_fsta.deactivated. The loop finished inmediatly. And now this is the problem: If I want to use my sony mv128, I can't have a functional drakupdate_fsta. My questions: 1. How can I avoid the loop with drakupdate_fsta when I plug in the sony mv 128? 2. Is drakupdate_fsta a critical component of LM 9.0? Can my computer with LM 9.0 live without it?
