I have this external harddisk kit, and when I plug it in, the system

this is what I get from the console:

umass0: vendor 0x05e3 USB TO IDE, rev 2.00/0.33, addr 2 umass0: BBB
reset failed, TIMEOUT umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall failed, TIMEOUT


Also, the very same thing but the timeouts are happening if I connect
an Apple iPod..

And for the record, I had this problem with both the generic and my
custom kernel.. both with umass,da,ses,pass compiled in..

Any ideas as for how to solve this? Any guidelines and I'd gladly
edit the files in question and submit a patch, when I get it
working..

PS, Any other usb-drive I've tried has worked without problems..

Greetings,

I have an external USB enclosure into which I can plug either of two IDE
hard drives, each in a separate caddy.  One works perfectly, the other
produces something very similar to the above error fairly consistently,
and triggers reboots of the FreeBSD (5.3) box when the enclosure is
plugged in or out with the 'broken' caddy inserted.

After some experimentation and close examination, it appears that the
cable inside the 'broken' caddy may have been slightly damaged.
Manipulating the cable (squashing it down into the caddy so the sliding
caddy lid does not scrape against it) appears to go some way towards
solving the problem.

So in my case I would say that it was a hardware (cabling) problem
within the caddy, and thus within the USB enclosure.

Other USB devices, including the second caddy and a couple of flash
drives, seem to work fine.

Rowdy
